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 evocative image captures a tense moment from the streets of the 1850s, as a determined paterfamilias (head of the household) takes matters into his own hands to protect his family from an unwanted intrusion. In the foreground, an organ grinder, soaked from a recent barrel of water, looks on in disbelief as a man brandishes a pistol, ready to defend his home against the foreign invasion. The organ grinder's instrument lies abandoned in the gutter, a reminder of the disrupted musical scene that once filled the bustling streets. The year was 1858, and the streets were alive with the sounds of music and the sights of street performers. But not all were welcome, and tensions ran high between locals and foreigners, leading to moments of confrontation. In this scene, the paterfamilias, a symbol of traditional values and family protection, takes a bold stand against the intrusion, using the cold water cure as a means of repelling the unwanted organ grinder. The image, titled "Organ Grinder Rejected: Repelling Foreign Invasion: Paterfamilias Tries the Cold Water Cure in a Case of Organ Grinding," offers a glimpse into the complex social dynamics of the time, where music, culture, and family values collided on the streets. The wet and muddy scene, with its stark contrasts of determination and rejection, is a powerful reminder of the tensions that once defined urban life in the 19th century.
