Liver Magnifying Medicines Pills Tablets
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 vintage print captures a fascinating glimpse into the world of medicine in the early 20th century. The advert for Carter's Little Liver Pills, dating back to around 1910, showcases a time when medical remedies were often marketed with bold claims and promises of miraculous results.
The magnifying glass hovering over the pills adds a touch of intrigue, inviting viewers to take a closer look at this historical piece of medical history. The glass bottle containing the liver tablets is a reminder of how far pharmaceutical packaging has come since then.
In an era before strict regulations on health claims, advertisements like these were common as companies vied for consumer attention with catchy slogans and persuasive imagery. Despite their questionable effectiveness by today's standards, these liver pills were likely seen as revolutionary at the time.
This image serves as a window into the past, offering insight into how medicine was perceived and consumed over a century ago. It also highlights the advancements that have been made in healthcare since then, underscoring the importance of evidence-based practices in modern medicine.
Overall, this print is not just a visual representation of an old advertisement but also a reflection on our evolving understanding and approach to healthcare throughout history.
