23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 print takes us back to the bustling streets of Commercial Road in London during the 1920s. The image showcases a greengrocer, a hardworking woman who stands proudly behind her vibrant display of fruits and vegetables. Her expertise is evident as she arranges each item meticulously in baskets, creating an enticing scene for passersby. The photograph captures the essence of city life, with people strolling along the road, going about their daily routines. The market stall becomes a hub of activity where locals gather to purchase fresh produce for their homes. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when shopping was done at local markets rather than large supermarkets. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this snapshot from history, transporting us to an era long gone but not forgotten. Through this photogravure, we catch a glimpse into the profession and occupation that sustained many families during that time. As we admire this remarkable piece from Arthur St John Adcock's Wonderful London series, we are reminded of the importance of small businesses in shaping our communities. This unknown greengrocer represents countless individuals who dedicated themselves to providing essential goods while contributing to the vibrancy and livelihood of their neighborhoods. In preserving this image through prints like these, we honor both the photographer's artistry and those whose stories may otherwise have been lost to time.
