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 engraving, titled 'Arrival of Immigrants at Griggsville Station, Mid-West, USA, 1886,' captures a poignant moment in American history as a small group of intrepid emigrants disembark from a train at Griggsville Station. Dressed in their best clothes and carrying boxes and bundles, these new arrivals to the United States are filled with a mix of excitement and apprehension as they embark on a new life in a land of opportunity. The image, published by Iln, is a historical record of the massive wave of immigration that occurred during the late 19th century. More than 12 million immigrants arrived in the United States between 1880 and 1890, many of them settling in the Mid-West. The trains, like the one shown here, were a vital link in the transportation network that brought these newcomers to their destinations. The engraving, created by an unknown artist, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the promise of a new life in America drew people from all corners of the globe. The boxes and bundles carried by the immigrants contain their worldly possessions, the few things they were able to bring with them as they began their new lives. The train station, with its simple architecture and bustling activity, serves as a reminder of the important role these transportation hubs played in the lives of millions of immigrants. This evocative image, with its rich historical significance, is a testament to the enduring spirit of those who came before us, seeking a better life in a new land. It is a reminder of the sacrifices they made and the challenges they faced, and of the important role that immigration continues to play in shaping the fabric of American society.
