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 evocative photograph captures the scene of the American Legion Parade in Omaha, Nebraska, USA, circa 1923. The parade was an occasion to honor and pay tribute to the brave Wyoming World War I veterans who had traveled from their home state to participate in the event. The veterans, dressed in their military uniforms, proudly carry the flags of their regiments, their faces reflecting a mix of pride, camaraderie, and nostalgia. The centerpiece of the parade is a stagecoach drawn by four magnificent horses. The stagecoach, a symbol of an earlier era, transports the veterans, adding an air of tradition and history to the proceedings. The crowd, made up of local residents and spectators, lines the streets, cheering and applauding as the veterans pass by. The atmosphere is festive, yet solemn, as the community comes together to honor the sacrifices made by these brave men during the war. The American Legion Parade in Omaha was just one of many such events that took place across the country during the 1920s. These parades served as a reminder of the sacrifices made during the war and helped to foster a sense of unity and pride within the community. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a bygone era and the enduring spirit of those who served their country in times of conflict.
