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.

For Hearth and Home - c.1914
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant and evocative print by the Scottish artist Graham Wallace that captures the essence of the homefront during the First World War. The image, created around 1914, depicts a soldier in uniform, weary from the battlefield, as he enters his humble cottage. The warm glow of the fireplace and the cozy interior of the home beckon him in, offering a momentary respite from the horrors of war. The title "For Hearth and Home" speaks to the deep longing that soldiers experienced for the comforts and familiarity of their homes and families during this time. The First World War, also known as the Great War, lasted from 1914 to 1918 and saw the mobilization of millions of soldiers from across Europe and beyond. The impact of the war was felt not only on the battlefield but also at home, as families and communities were torn apart and the daily struggles of life continued. Graham Wallace's print is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during the war and the importance of the hearth and home as a source of comfort and solace. The soldier's uniform and the simple, rustic cottage setting add to the historical context of the image, making it a valuable addition to any collection of World War I art and historical prints. This print, "For Hearth and Home - c.1914" by Graham Wallace, is a poignant and evocative reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War and the enduring importance of the hearth and home as a source of comfort and solace. The warm glow of the fireplace and the cozy interior offer a momentary respite from the horrors of war, making this print a powerful and moving representation of the human experience during this time in history.
