31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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
Girls Washing and Ironing, 1884 This evocative photograph captures a moment in time from the late 19th century, depicting a scene of domestic labor as performed by young girls. The image, taken by an unknown photographer and sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the daily life and household chores that were common during this era. The photograph shows a group of girls huddled around a large tub filled with laundry, each girl engaged in her task. One girl is scrubbing clothes with soap and water, while another is rinsing them under a steady stream of water from a nearby bucket. A third girl is wringing out the excess water from the clothes, preparing them for the ironing process. In the foreground, another girl is sitting at a small ironing board, carefully pressing and smoothing out wrinkles from a freshly laundered shirt. The iron, with its long handle and flat, heated surface, is held in her hand, and the expression on her face suggests the focus and determination required to complete her task efficiently. The scene is set outdoors, with the sun casting long shadows over the ground and the girls' clothing. The simple, rustic surroundings add to the sense of authenticity and historical accuracy, making this photograph a valuable record of domestic life during the late Victorian period. Despite the hard work and laborious nature of their tasks, the girls in the photograph seem content and engaged in their work. Their camaraderie and shared focus on completing their household chores offer a poignant reminder of the importance of community and the bonds that can be forged through shared experiences.
