Danish Extremely Mounted Phone Telephone 1907
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
A Danish Lady on the Line, 1907 This image, titled 'A Danish Lady on the Line,' taken in 1907, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the transformation of communication technology and the graceful elegance of a bygone era. The photograph, captured by an unknown artist and now available through Mary Evans Picture Library, presents a Danish lady in an extremely long and ornate dress, standing before a wall-mounted telephone. The telephone, a marvel of modern technology at the time, is mounted high on the wall, requiring the lady to lean forward and extend her arm to reach the receiver. Her expression is focused and intent, as if in the midst of an important conversation. The telephone line, a long, delicate strand that connects her to the outside world, stretches out behind her, symbolizing the vast network of communication that was just beginning to span the globe. The historical context of this photograph is intriguing. In the early 1900s, the telephone was a luxury item, and only the wealthy could afford to have one installed in their homes. This Danish lady, with her elegant attire and refined manners, embodies the upper class of the time. Her use of the telephone underscores the importance of communication in maintaining social connections and conducting business, even in the most remote of locations. This photograph is a testament to the evolution of communication technology and the enduring human desire to connect with one another, no matter the distance or obstacles. It invites us to reflect on the ways in which technology has shaped our lives and brought us closer together, even as it continues to change and adapt in the modern world.
