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.

NYC - PENN STATION, 1942 - A Glimpse into the Lives of Soldiers and Sailors
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a poignant moment in history at Penn Station, New York City in 1942. In the midst of World War II, soldiers and sailors are seen waiting for their train, brimming with anticipation and uncertainty. The image beautifully portrays the diversity among these brave men and women who have come from all corners of America to serve their country. The scene is bustling with activity as troops clad in various uniforms stand alongside one another. Their luggage lies scattered around them, a symbol of the transitory nature of military life. Amidst this sea of soldiers stands an unidentified woman, perhaps bidding farewell to her loved ones or offering words of encouragement before they embark on their journey. Marjory Collins skillfully captures the atmosphere within Penn Station's grand interior; its architecture serving as a backdrop to this human drama unfolding before our eyes. The mid-20th century setting adds an additional layer of historical significance to this powerful image. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded not only of the sacrifices made by those who served but also how travel can bring people together from different walks of life during times both joyous and challenging. This photograph serves as a testament to resilience, unity, and patriotism that continues to inspire us today.
