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.

You're Pulling My Leg!
EDITORS COMMENTS
- Early 20th Century Humor and Elegance This delightful photograph, titled "You're Pulling My Leg!", captures the essence of early 20th century playfulness and style. The image features a stylishly dressed woman, adorned in a long, elegant skirt with a checkered pattern and a matching blouse with intricate buttons. She wears spats and carries a fashionable handbag, adding to her sophisticated appearance. Accompanying the woman is a dapper couple, both dressed in colorful, turn-of-the-century attire. The man, wearing double-breasted trousers and a bowler hat, holds the leash of a mischievous-looking Regal or Rigby dog, known for its distinctive spotted coat. The scene unfolds on a sunlit street, with the couple engaged in a light-hearted moment. The man appears to be teasing the woman, as if to say, "You're pulling my leg!" - an idiomatic expression that carries a double meaning, suggesting both a literal and a figurative tug-of-war. The playful interaction between the couple and their dog is further emphasized by the clever use of verbal humor and entendre. The dog's name, Regal or Rigby, adds to the overall sense of merriment, as the name itself can be interpreted as a reference to the regal bearing of the couple and the rigorous nature of the dog's playful antics. This charming photograph not only showcases the fashion trends of the early 20th century but also highlights the importance of humor and playfulness in human relationships. It is an enduring reminder of a bygone era, filled with elegance, wit, and the simple joys of life.
