17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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.

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 print from Granger Art on Demand captures a powerful moment in history during World War I. Titled "Down With the Monster!", it depicts French troops fearlessly attacking a menacing German dragon, symbolizing their determination to overcome evil and defend their homeland. Published in a French magazine on 20th September 1914, this cartoon serves as both propaganda and political commentary. The image personifies Germany as a monstrous creature, representing the enemy that must be defeated at all costs. The use of such vivid imagery aimed to evoke strong emotions among the French population and rally support for the war effort. The artist skillfully portrays the intensity of early warfare through his depiction of bayonet-wielding soldiers charging towards the dragon with unwavering bravery. This visual representation highlights not only the courage of these men but also their willingness to sacrifice themselves for their country. Furthermore, this cartoon reflects deep-rooted discrimination against Germans during this time period. By depicting them as an evil monster, it perpetuates negative stereotypes and reinforces nationalistic sentiments among the French people. Overall, this thought-provoking print provides us with a glimpse into how art was used as a tool for propaganda during World War I. It reminds us of the power that images hold in shaping public opinion and mobilizing nations in times of conflict.
