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 captures a poignant moment in the history of Jamaica's sugar cane industry. Taken in 1922, it showcases a group of resilient women tending to young sugar canes on a plantation. Their faces tell stories of determination and strength as they work tirelessly under the scorching sun. In this snapshot, we witness the vital role that these Jamaican women played in sustaining their country's economy during the early 20th century. With their skilled hands and unwavering dedication, they nurtured each delicate plant with care, ensuring a bountiful harvest for generations to come. The image transports us back to an era when agriculture was not just an occupation but a way of life for many Jamaicans. It serves as a powerful reminder of the deep connection between people and nature, highlighting how our livelihoods are intertwined with the land we cultivate. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece, let us pay homage to these unsung heroines who labored behind-the-scenes on vast plantations like this one. Their contribution shaped Jamaica's identity as both an agricultural powerhouse and a nation built upon resilience and perseverance. This print is not merely an artifact from history; it encapsulates the spirit of hard work, determination, and unity that continues to inspire us today.
