Badge Brooch Commemorative First Ware Wound Made
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.

1. Title: "A Symbol of Sacrifice: The First World War German War Wound Badge in Brooch Form" This evocative image showcases a rare and poignant artifact from the First World War era - a German War Wound Badge, fashioned as a brooch. The badge, a testament to the bravery and resilience of the soldiers who bore it, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the 1914-1918 conflict. The intricately designed badge features a crossed swords motif, symbolizing the military nature of the conflict, encircled by a laurel wreath. At the center, a red enameled shield bears the inscription "1914" and "1918," signifying the duration of the war. The badge's design is both somber and powerful, reflecting the gravity of the experiences endured by the wounded soldiers. The conversion of the badge into a brooch format underscores the importance of commemoration and the desire to wear the symbol of one's military service with pride. This transformation allowed soldiers to display their wounds and their bravery in a more visible and accessible way, fostering a sense of camaraderie and solidarity among the wounded. The First World War German War Wound Badge, made as a brooch, is a significant historical artifact that provides a glimpse into the experiences of the soldiers who fought in the Great War. Its intricate design, rich history, and powerful symbolism continue to captivate and inspire generations, offering a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during one of the most tumultuous periods in human history.
