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
Food - Don't Waste It (1917) This powerful poster from 1917, titled "Food - Don't Waste It," is a poignant reminder of the importance of food conservation during times of scarcity. The image depicts a woman in a simple apron, her face etched with concern as she gazes at a plate piled high with uneaten food. Behind her, a long line of hungry and desperate people wait in line, their empty plates held out in supplication. The caption above the woman reads, "Food is precious. Don't throw it away," while the caption below the scene urges, "Make the most of your food. Don't waste it." This poster was likely produced during World War I, when food shortages were common due to the disruptions of the war. The poster is a call to action, reminding people of the importance of not wasting food and making the most of what they had. The image is both a reminder of the reality of food scarcity and a call to action to do one's part to help alleviate the problem. The poster's design is simple yet effective, using strong visual imagery to convey its message. The use of black and white, combined with bold typography, creates a sense of urgency and importance. The poster's message remains relevant today, as food waste continues to be a significant issue, both in times of abundance and scarcity. The image serves as a reminder of the importance of being mindful of our food consumption and the impact it has on both our personal lives and the larger community.
