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 evocative photograph captures the determination and courage of the Ladies' Land League members as they are forcibly dispersed from their meeting in Ireland during the late 19th century. The Ladies' Land League was formed in 1881 by the charismatic Irish nationalist leader, Anna Parnell, in response to the widespread poverty and suffering caused by the eviction of tenants from their lands. Parnell and her followers believed that women, as the backbone of Irish rural communities, had a crucial role to play in the fight for land reform and fair rents. The Ladies' Land League quickly gained popularity, with thousands of women joining the cause. They organized protests, petitions, and boycotts of landlords and their agents. The movement put immense pressure on the British government, leading to the passage of several important land reform laws. However, their actions did not sit well with the authorities, who saw the League as a threat to their control. This photograph shows a Ladies' Land League meeting being dispersed by the police or military, likely in an attempt to quell the growing unrest. The women, many of them dressed in their Sunday best, are shown standing their ground, refusing to be intimidated. Their resilience and unwavering commitment to their cause are a testament to the power of grassroots activism and the indomitable spirit of the Irish people during a time of great upheaval. Anna Parnell's leadership and the actions of the Ladies' Land League played a significant role in the Irish land war and the eventual achievement of land reform. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and struggles of those who fought for a better future for their communities and their country.
