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 photograph, taken circa 1910, offers a glimpse into the intense and determined efforts of the British Suffragettes as they advocated for women's right to vote. The image, titled "Votes for Women Bill Posting," depicts a group of passionate Suffragettes keenly sticking bills on various surfaces, demonstrating their unwavering commitment to the cause. The women in the photograph are seen affixing posters to a range of objects, from policemen and letter boxes to dogs and walls. Their actions were a bold and defiant statement against the societal norms of the time, which denied women the fundamental right to participate in the political process. The Suffragettes' bill posting campaign was a crucial part of their broader strategy to raise awareness and generate public support for women's suffrage. By plastering cities with their messages, they were able to reach a wider audience and galvanize more people to join their cause. Despite the challenges they faced, including harassment from the police and public backlash, the Suffragettes remained undeterred. Their unwavering dedication and perseverance eventually paid off, as women in the United Kingdom were granted the right to vote in 1918. This photograph is an important historical record of a pivotal moment in the fight for women's rights and serves as a reminder of the courage and determination of the Suffragettes who paved the way for future generations.
