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
1. Title: A Health Visitor's Rural Calling: A 1950s Snapshot of Care and Connection on a Colchester Farm 2.. This evocative black-and-white photograph captures a poignant moment in the history of rural health care, as a dedicated health visitor makes a house call on a mother and her newborn baby in a quaint farmstead nestled near Colchester, England, during the 1950s. The image, a testament to the enduring human spirit and the importance of medical care in the most remote and idyllic of settings, offers a glimpse into the past when health visitors played a crucial role in ensuring the wellbeing of families living in the countryside. The health visitor, dressed in her professional attire, exudes warmth and compassion as she engages with the mother, who cradles her infant tenderly. The farm's rustic charm is evident in the background, with the wooden beams and thatched roof of the farmhouse, the rolling hills, and the farm animals grazing in the distance. The scene is one of tranquility and connection, as the health visitor provides essential medical advice, support, and encouragement to the young mother in the comfort of her own home. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the vital role health visitors played in the 1950s, particularly in rural areas where access to medical facilities and resources were often limited. It also underscores the importance of continuity of care and the value of having a trusted, familiar health professional who could offer guidance and assistance during the critical early stages of a child's life. As we reflect on this image, we are reminded of the enduring bond between health visitors, mothers, and their babies, and the profound impact that compassionate, personalized care can have on the lives of families, no matter where they call home.
