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 historic photograph captures the moment when two trailblazing women, Miss Fay Kyle and Miss A.K.S Deverell, made their entrance into the hallowed halls of the legal profession as the first women barristers in 1921. Their groundbreaking achievement came at a time when women's rights and gender equality were still contentious issues. The image shows the two women proudly donning the traditional barrister's wig and gown, symbolizing their newfound status as legal professionals. Miss Fay Kyle, on the left, holds a rolled-up document in her hand, possibly a brief or case file, while Miss Deverell gazes confidently at the camera. Their determined expressions and elegant attire convey a sense of accomplishment and defiance against the societal norms of the time. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the progress made in women's rights and gender equality in the legal profession over the past century. It also highlights the resilience and determination of these pioneering women, who paved the way for future generations of female lawyers to follow in their footsteps. The year 1921 marked a significant milestone in the history of women's rights and the legal profession, as these two women broke through the barriers that had long prevented women from practicing law as barristers. Their courage and determination continue to inspire us today, as we strive for greater equality and representation in all areas of society.
