1882 Corset Dressed Fleeing Informal Refugee Refugees Shown Wake


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 engraving captures an intimate and poignant moment on board the Refugee Ship North Britain in 1882. The scene shows European refugees, having fled from Egypt, as they begin their day. In the foreground, a woman is seated at a table, having her hair dressed by another woman. The intricacy of the hairstyle suggests that this was a time-consuming process, yet the women seem to be engaged in a comfortable and familiar routine. Nearby, another woman is shown in the process of lacing up her corset, a common undergarment of the time. The informal setting and the focus on daily life contrast sharply with the larger historical context of the refugees' displacement and the challenges they faced. The North Britain, which had been chartered by the British government to transport refugees from Egypt following the British occupation of the country, carried over 1,500 passengers to Malta and then on to England. The image offers a glimpse into the lives of these refugees, providing a humanizing counterpoint to the larger narrative of their displacement and the geopolitical events that drove them from their homes." This engraving, titled "Scene on board the Refugee Ship North Britain, 1882," is an important historical document that sheds light on the experiences of European refugees during a time of political upheaval. The image, which is not to be used for commercial purposes, is available for rights-managed licensing from Mary Evans Prints Online. The intricately detailed engraving, which measures 21 x 15 cm, offers a unique and poignant glimpse into the daily lives of refugees and the human stories behind the larger historical events of the time. The image is a reminder of the enduring power of art to capture and preserve moments of history, offering valuable insights into the past and the experiences of those who have come before us.
