Crab Drunkard Sleep Timothy Waking
31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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.

Waking from Sleep
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative and intriguing photograph taken by Timothy Crab around the turn of the 20th century. The image, part of the Boswell Collection, depicts a drunken man in the midst of waking up from a deep slumber. The dimly lit room is filled with an air of mystery, with only the faint glow of a lantern illuminating the scene. The man, disheveled and unshaven, lies on a bed, his eyes barely open as he struggles to come to consciousness. His clothing is rumpled and stained, a clear indication of his heavy drinking the night before. The room itself is in a state of disarray, with empty bottles and glasses scattered about. Despite the man's apparent state of inebriation and dishevelment, there is a sense of vulnerability and humanity in the photograph. The man's expression is one of confusion and disorientation, as he tries to make sense of his surroundings and shake off the remnants of his drunken stupor. The use of light and shadow in the photograph adds to its intrigue, with the lantern casting long, dramatic shadows across the room. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the human condition, and the struggles and vulnerabilities that come with it. The image is a powerful one, and invites the viewer to consider the story behind the man in the photograph, and the events that led him to this moment of waking from sleep. Timothy Crab's skillful use of light, shadow, and composition make this a truly captivating and thought-provoking photograph.
