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
This iconic print captures two of the most influential figures in British Labour politics, Michael Foot and Tony Benn, sitting side by side at a conference in the 1970s. Both known for their staunch left-wing socialist beliefs, Foot and Benn were instrumental in shaping the direction of the Labour Party during this era.
Michael Foot, with his trademark wild hair and passionate oratory skills, served as Leader of the Labour Party from 1980 to 1983. He was a fierce advocate for social justice and nuclear disarmament, earning him both admirers and critics within his party.
Tony Benn, on the other hand, was a charismatic and eloquent speaker who held various ministerial positions before becoming one of the leading voices on the left of British politics. His commitment to democratic socialism made him a beloved figure among grassroots activists.
In this candid moment captured in black-and-white, we see Foot and Benn sharing a smile as they engage in conversation. Their camaraderie is evident as they discuss policies that would shape not only their party but also the future of Britain.
As we reflect on this image today, we are reminded of these two giants of Labour politics who dedicated their lives to fighting for equality and social change. Their legacy continues to inspire new generations of progressive leaders striving for a better world.
