Bucket Cheerful Cleaner Cleaning Effort Georgina Ladder Newly Trained
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 print captures a group of newly trained women window cleaners, known as the Georginas, setting off for their first job in the 1940s. With ladders and buckets in hand, these determined women exude a sense of camaraderie and cheerfulness as they embark on their mission to clean windows during a time of war.
The historical significance of this image is undeniable, showcasing the efforts of women who stepped up to take on essential work traditionally done by men. The sight of these trained Georginas working together symbolizes strength, resilience, and unity in the face of adversity.
As they carry out their duties with precision and determination, it is evident that these women are breaking barriers and shattering stereotypes about gender roles in society. Their hard work and dedication serve as an inspiration for future generations of women seeking equality and empowerment in the workforce.
Through Mary Evans Picture Library's lens, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in history when women proved that they were capable of taking on any challenge thrown their way. This print is not just a snapshot from the past; it is a testament to the unwavering spirit and tenacity of women who refused to be confined by societal norms.
