23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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
Men Taking a Break on the Steps of the Elkins Hotel, West Virginia (1939, June) This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite for a group of men in the quaint town of Elkins, West Virginia. Taken in the summer of 1939, the image portrays a scene of simple pleasures and camaraderie. The men, dressed in work clothes and hats, sit casually on the steps of the Elkins Hotel, their faces expressing a range of emotions from contentment to contemplation. The hotel, a grand old building with white columns and a red-tiled roof, looms majestically in the background, a testament to the town's rich history. The setting of this photograph is a reminder of a bygone era, a time when life moved at a slower pace. The men, likely weary from a long day's work, have gathered here to rest and unwind. They engage in quiet conversation, sharing stories and laughter, while enjoying the cool breeze that sweeps through the town. The scene is quintessentially American, with its small-town charm and the men's casual attire and demeanor. The photograph invites us to imagine the stories of these men and their lives, and to appreciate the simple joys of community and connection. The Elkins Hotel, still standing today, continues to be a landmark in the town of Elkins. This photograph, a snapshot of a moment in time, offers a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the enduring power of human connection.
