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
1. Title: "Winifred Ashton, the Versatile Voice of Literature: A Portrait of the Author in Deep Thought Winifred Ashton, born in 1888, was a remarkable figure in the literary world, known for her prolific work under the pen name Clemence Dane. Her writing career spanned over seven decades, leaving an indelible mark on both the novel and playwriting scenes. This evocative photograph captures Ashton in a moment of profound concentration, her brow furrowed as she holds a pencil and paper, lost in the creative process. The image, taken likely in the mid-20th century, encapsulates the intense focus and dedication that defined her literary pursuits. Ashton's body of work was diverse and far-reaching. Her novels, such as "Broome Stages" and "A Bill of Divorcement," delved into the complexities of human relationships and the intricacies of societal norms. Her plays, including "Fame is the Spur," "Love's Labour's Lost," and "The Way to the Stars," graced the stages of London's West End and Broadway, earning her critical acclaim and a devoted following. Despite her success, Ashton remained humble and dedicated to her craft. She once said, "I write because I cannot help it. It is as natural for me as breathing." This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of her unwavering commitment to her art, even as she penned her final words. Winifred Ashton's legacy continues to inspire generations of writers and readers alike. Her contributions to literature, both as Winifred Ashton and Clemence Dane, stand as testament to her enduring influence on the literary landscape. This image, a glimpse into the mind of a literary titan, offers a glimpse into the creative process that fueled her extraordinary career.
