1897 Angelic Kneel Prayer Prayers Praying
31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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, titled 'Boys Praying,' captures the innocence and devotion of three little angels as they kneel side by side to say their evening prayers. The image, taken circa 1897, transports us back in time to a simpler era, where the daily routine included this sacred moment of reflection and communion with the divine. The boys, dressed in their Sunday best, are bathed in the soft, golden light of the setting sun, creating an ethereal atmosphere that adds to the otherworldly quality of the scene. Their faces are serious and focused, their eyes closed in deep concentration as they repeat their prayers. The eldest boy, with a rosary beads in hand, leads the prayer while his younger brothers follow suit, their small hands folded in prayer. The historical significance of this photograph lies in its ability to capture a moment of religious devotion that was once a common practice in many households. Prayer was an essential part of daily life, and this photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of faith and spirituality in the lives of children, even in the face of the many challenges and distractions of the modern world. The 'Boys Praying' photograph is a beautiful and moving testament to the enduring power of faith and the innocence of childhood. It invites us to reflect on the simple joys and blessings of life, and to cherish the moments of peace and connection that we share with those we love.
