Bedroom Candle Morning Snuffer Waking Years Year
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
A New Year's Morning Awakening, 1906 Photography by Charles Robinson, this image transports us back in time to the early 20th century, where we find a young girl, bathed in the soft glow of a candlelight, as she begins to stir on New Year's Morning. The year is 1906, and the scene unfolds in a cozy, Victorian-era bedroom. The little girl, dressed in a white nightgown, lies in her bed, her eyes still closed, as she listens to the gentle sounds of the new day beginning. The candle on the bedside table, its flame flickering, casts long, dancing shadows on the walls, creating an ethereal atmosphere. In her hand, she holds a snuffer, a traditional tool used to extinguish candles, symbolizing the end of the old year and the beginning of the new. The New Year was celebrated with much anticipation and excitement in the 19th century, and children were often included in the customs and traditions. In many households, it was believed that the first person to see or speak to on New Year's Day would influence the fortune and blessings for the coming year. Therefore, parents would wake their children early to ensure they were the first to greet the new day. This beautiful photograph, with its timeless charm and nostalgic appeal, offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the simple joys and traditions that have stood the test of time. The little girl's peaceful expression and the warm, inviting light of the candle create a sense of tranquility and hope, as we welcome the promise of a new year filled with possibilities.
