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
This evocative photograph captures the intensity and hard work involved in unloading a shipment of cargo at the bustling Manila Docks in the Philippines during the late 1930s. The image shows three young men in shorts, their faces focused and determined as they wipe the sweat from their brows in the oppressive heat. The ships in the background loom large, their masts and rigging casting long shadows over the dockside. Manila, the capital city of the Philippines, was an important trading hub during this period, with ships from all over the world arriving to unload their cargo. The scene depicted in this photograph is one of transportation and commerce, with the cargo being unloaded and prepared for onward distribution throughout the archipelago. The presence of lifeboats in the foreground serves as a reminder of the risks involved in this line of work, with the rough waters of Manila Bay posing a constant threat to the safety of the dockworkers. Despite the challenges, the men continue to work, driven by the need to provide for their families and contribute to the economic growth of their community. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of Manila's dockworkers during a time of great change and development in the Philippines. It is a powerful reminder of the human spirit and resilience, and the vital role that ports and harbors play in connecting people and communities across the globe.
