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.

The Tigress, 1932
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures the essence of conflict and aggression in 1930s Britain. Taken from Punch, or The London Charivari magazine on September 21st, 1932, this image showcases a powerful metaphorical face-off between two individuals dressed in sportswear on a tennis court. The tension between the two figures is palpable as they stand face to face, their expressions reflecting determination and defiance. The woman portrayed here embodies the spirit of a tigress - fierce and unyielding. Her occupation as a tennis player adds an intriguing layer to her character, suggesting that she not only excels in sports but also possesses qualities associated with strength and resilience. The vibrant colors used in this print further enhance its impact. The bold reds and blues evoke feelings of intensity and passion while highlighting the aggressive nature of the scene. This snapshot freezes a moment filled with conflicting emotions, leaving viewers intrigued by what might unfold next. Created by an unknown artist for Punch or The London Charivari magazine during the thirties era, "The Tigress" serves as both an artistic representation of British society at that time and an exploration of gender roles within sports professions. It reminds us that even outside traditional male-dominated occupations like tennis, women can display remarkable skill and assertiveness. This print from Heritage Images allows us to delve into history through visual storytelling without commercial intentions but rather appreciating its cultural significance.
