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 pivotal moment in history when the British public was first introduced to the scandalous new attire for women known as bloomers. Amelia Bloomer, the originator of this revolutionary dress reform movement, is depicted here in all her Victorian glory, challenging societal norms with her practical and unwomanly choice of clothing.
In 1851, Amelia Bloomer made waves by daring to wear what was considered a mannish and scandalous outfit that defied traditional gender roles. The sight of her donning these bloomer garments caused quite a stir among onlookers, sparking debates about femininity, modesty, and freedom of expression.
Through this historical image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the boldness and courage of Amelia Bloomer as she paved the way for future generations of women to embrace their individuality and challenge oppressive social expectations. This photograph serves as a reminder of the power of fashion as a tool for social change and empowerment.
Thanks to Mary Evans Picture Library's collection, we are able to glimpse into this significant moment in women's history and appreciate Amelia Bloomer's contributions towards gender equality through her innovative approach to dress reform.
