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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Prints Online takes us back to 1925, showcasing a groundbreaking medical treatment for children suffering from rickets. In the image, three young patients are being carefully treated with ultra-violet rays in order to cure their condition. The artificial sunlight used in this therapy was a revolutionary approach at the time, offering hope and healing to those affected by this debilitating disease.
What is particularly striking about this photograph is the protective goggles worn by the children during the treatment. These specially designed goggles shielded their eyes from potential sunburn while allowing them to benefit from the therapeutic effects of the ultra-violet light. It's a poignant reminder of both the advancements in medical science and the care taken to ensure these young patients were safe throughout their treatment.
As we look at this historical snapshot, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of medical knowledge and technology. This image serves as a testament to human ingenuity and compassion, highlighting our ongoing quest to find innovative solutions for improving health and well-being. The children in this photo represent resilience, hope, and progress - all captured within a single frame that continues to inspire awe and admiration today.
