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.

San Francisco, California, 1939 - A Glimpse into the Heart of America's Great Depression

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Dorothea Lange, we are transported back to the year 1939 in San Francisco, California. The image captures a poignant moment in American history when the country was grappling with the devastating effects of the Great Depression. Lange's keen eye for detail and empathy for her subjects is evident as she documents a bustling cityscape against a backdrop of economic hardship. The photograph showcases an intricate catenary system that powers electric trams, symbolizing both technological advancements and urban resilience during challenging times. The composition invites us to reflect on the struggles faced by ordinary citizens who relied on public transport amidst widespread recession. Lange's work underlines her commitment to capturing raw human emotions within historical contexts while shedding light on social issues that defined an era. As part of the Farm Security Administration (FSA) project led by Russell Lee and supported by government agencies like Office of War Information (OWI), Lange's photography became instrumental in raising awareness about poverty-stricken communities across America. Her images served as powerful tools for advocating change and highlighting societal inequalities. This remarkable still image from Heritage Art not only preserves our collective heritage but also serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time, allowing us to connect with past generations. It stands testament to Dorothea Lange's enduring legacy as one of America's most influential photographers whose work continues to inspire conversations
