Shortages


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 print from Mary Evans Prints Online transports us back to the tumultuous times of World War I, where shortages in France forced people to get creative with their fashion choices. The illustration speculates that due to the scarcity of materials during the war, summer fashion may have had to resort to fig leaves as a form of clothing. The image provides a fascinating glimpse into the resourcefulness and resilience of individuals during such challenging historical events. It serves as a reminder of the hardships faced by those on the home front, where everyday luxuries were replaced with necessities for survival. The intricate details in this illustration showcase not only the artistic talent behind it but also offer insight into how people adapted to difficult circumstances during wartime. The use of fig leaves as a garment symbolizes both practicality and ingenuity in finding solutions amidst adversity. As we reflect on this piece, we are reminded of the impact that war has on all aspects of society, including something as seemingly trivial as fashion. It is a poignant reminder of how history shapes our lives and influences even the most mundane aspects of our existence.
