31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 31x27 inches (787x685mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures a family's struggle in North Carolina during the summer of 1939. The image showcases a father, crippled with rheumatism, surrounded by his wife and children. Despite their hardships, the family stands together against poverty and adversity. The man's physical condition is evident as he sits on an exterior porch, his face etched with pain. His wife stands beside him, her expression filled with concern and determination to support her husband through this difficult time. Their two children - a barefoot boy and a girl - stand close by, displaying both innocence and resilience in their young faces. Dorothea Lange masterfully captured this moment of vulnerability amidst the Southeastern landscape. Her lens reveals not only the harsh reality faced by many families during that era but also highlights their unwavering strength to endure. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the challenges faced by countless families across America during the Great Depression. It invites us to reflect on our own privileges while acknowledging those who have persevered through unimaginable circumstances. Granger Art on Demand presents this historical print from 1939 as an opportunity for viewers to connect with our shared past and appreciate the resilience displayed within one North Carolina family's story.
