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.

A Hidden Corner, Los Angeles, 1936: Figueroa Playhouse - 'Figueroa Playhouse...Peretz Hirshbein's Famous 4-Act Masterpiece - [Hebrew/Yiddish text]...A Federal Theatres Attraction - Div'n W.P.A.' This photograph print takes us back to a hidden corner of Los Angeles in 1936, where the Figueroa Playhouse was a beacon for cultural exploration and artistic expression. The playbill featured in the image advertises Peretz Hirshbein's famous four-act masterpiece, presented as a Federal Theatre Project attraction under the Works Progress Administration (WPA). The Federal Theatre Project, established in 1935 by the US Works Progress Administration, was a significant part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal initiatives. Its mission was to conserve and develop the skills of theatre workers, re-employ them on public relief, and bring theatre to thousands in the United States who had never before experienced live theatrical performances. This poster, adorned with Hebrew and Yiddish text, reflects the rich cultural heritage of the era. The intricate lettering and design elements showcase the artistic talent and dedication of the Federal Theatre Project. The image offers a glimpse into the political and social climate of the 1930s, a time when the arts played a crucial role in uplifting communities and fostering unity. The Figueroa Playhouse served as a vital platform for diverse performances, including those in the Yiddish theatre tradition, which held a deep significance for the Jewish community in Los Angeles and beyond. This photograph print is a testament to the enduring power of the arts to connect, inspire, and bring people together, even in the most challenging of times.
