Cityscapes Italy Places Poor Poverty Pupils Queues Queuing Suburban Expressions
23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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
In this poignant photo print, captured in April 1975 on the outskirts of Rome, Italy, we see a young child sitting alone on the steps of an old building. The dilapidated surroundings hint at the poverty that plagues this suburban area. The boy's expression is both innocent and contemplative as he gazes into the distance. It is impossible to ignore the weight of his circumstances reflected in his eyes. This image serves as a stark reminder of the harsh realities faced by many children growing up in impoverished neighborhoods. Despite living amidst such adversity, there is a sense of resilience emanating from this young soul. Perhaps lost in thought about his future or longing for better opportunities, he represents countless other children who dream beyond their current circumstances. This street scene also prompts us to reflect upon education and its role in breaking cycles of poverty. As pupils pass by him on their way to school, one can't help but wonder if he too longs for access to knowledge and brighter prospects. Through this powerful photograph taken by Mirrorpix during a time when Europe was undergoing significant social changes, we are reminded that poverty knows no boundaries or borders. It challenges us to confront our own privilege while inspiring empathy towards those less fortunate than ourselves.
