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 powerful and iconic Russian poster from the year 1917 captures the essence of the revolutionary spirit that swept through Russia during this pivotal period in world history. The image of a determined figure, clad in peasant attire and holding a rifle aloft, stands defiantly against the backdrop of a group of armed revolutionaries assembled on the steps of a grandiose building. The red banner bearing the hammer and sickle symbol of the Bolshevik Party is prominently displayed, signaling the rise of communist ideology. The poster, created during the height of the Russian Revolution, reflects the fervor and intensity of the political upheaval that was taking place. The use of bold, stark colors and dynamic composition effectively convey the sense of urgency and determination that characterized the revolutionary movement. The image of the raised arm, reminiscent of the Marseillaise hymn's famous line "amis, enfants de la patrie, lever et lever les armes," (friends, children of the fatherland, rise and rise your arms), further emphasizes the call to arms and the need for collective action. This historic poster is a poignant reminder of the transformative power of political ideology and the indomitable spirit of those who fought for change. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to evoke a sense of awe and inspiration, as well as a deep appreciation for the historical significance of the events it represents. This powerful visual narrative continues to resonate with audiences today, making it an invaluable addition to any collection of historical or political art.
