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 poignant photograph captures the harsh reality of unemployment during the Great Trade Depression in Lancashire, England, in 1932. The image portrays a group of unemployed men and women gathered at the gates of mills, factories, and pits, hopeful for any sign of work. The desolate scene reflects the economic hardships faced by the manufacturing industry and its workers during these interwar years. Lancashire, once a thriving hub of textile manufacturing, was particularly affected by the depression. The region's economy relied heavily on the textile industry, which was hit hard by the global economic downturn. Factories closed, and jobs became scarce, leaving countless workers and their families struggling to make ends meet. The photograph shows the determination and desperation of the unemployed as they wait for the opportunity to return to work. The women, dressed in their best clothes, join the men in their search for employment. Their expressions convey a sense of hope, but also resignation and frustration. The empty factories and mills in the background serve as a reminder of the once-thriving industry that has now come to a standstill. This image is a powerful testament to the human spirit and resilience during times of economic hardship. It also serves as a reminder of the importance of employment and the role it plays in the well-being of individuals and communities. The Great Trade Depression was a defining moment in British history, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the lives of those who were most affected by it.
