Commemorative Doll Trench Ware
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 Rag Doll Soldier Tenplate is a poignant reminder of the human impact of the First World War. The tenplate, a type of transfer printing plate used in the production of commemorative ware, showcases a rag doll soldier standing at attention, dressed in the uniform of a British infantryman from the era. The intricate detailing on the soldier's uniform, complete with a Red Cross emblem on his helmet and a poppy on his lapel, underscores the historical significance of this piece. The use of a rag doll as a representation of a soldier adds an unexpected yet poignant touch to the tenplate. Rag dolls were a common toy during the early 20th century, and their simple, homemade nature contrasts sharply with the industrialized and mechanized nature of modern warfare during WWI. This juxtaposition serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war, as soldiers, many of whom were young men, were reduced to mere dolls, their lives lost or changed forever. The tenplate also features a trench scene in the background, complete with barbed wire, artillery, and a gas mask. This detail further underscores the harsh realities of trench warfare and the dangerous conditions that soldiers faced during the conflict. The use of commemorative ware to honor the sacrifices of soldiers during WWI was a popular trend during the interwar period, and this Rag Doll Soldier Tenplate is a beautiful and poignant example of this tradition. Overall, this Rag Doll Soldier Tenplate is a powerful and poignant piece of military history, one that reminds us of the human cost of war and the enduring impact of the First World War on generations past and present.
