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. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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
by Joseph Pennell is a captivating black and white lithograph that offers a glimpse into the armaments industry during the early 20th century. The print showcases an industrial building bustling with activity, depicting the inner workings of a munitions factory. In this thought-provoking image, Pennell skillfully captures the essence of war and weaponry through his intricate lithography technique. The stark contrast between light and shadow creates a dramatic atmosphere within the scene, emphasizing the gravity of its subject matter. As we delve deeper into the composition, our attention is drawn to background figures - workers who play an integral role in this machinery-driven world. Their presence serves as a reminder of human labor behind these weapons of destruction. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , "The Gun Shop, 1916" stands as both art and historical documentation. It invites viewers to reflect on how warfare has shaped societies throughout history while also appreciating Pennell's artistic prowess. This print not only immortalizes an era dominated by industrialization but also raises questions about humanity's relationship with violence and conflict. By capturing this moment in time through lithotint printing techniques, Joseph Pennell leaves us pondering our own place within this complex web of arms production.
