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 photograph captured by Charlie Ley, we are transported back to the summer of June 1943 during World War Two. The image beautifully depicts a group of Land Army girls diligently gathering hay in the fields, showcasing their unwavering dedication to supporting the war effort through agriculture. Against a backdrop of rolling hills and endless fields, these remarkable women can be seen wearing practical work attire as they tirelessly labor under the scorching sun. Their determination is palpable, as they skillfully maneuver pitchforks and bales of hay with grace and strength. This snapshot not only encapsulates the essence of rural scenes from the 1940s but also serves as a powerful testament to the vital role that women played during wartime. With many men away fighting on distant battlefields, it was left to these courageous ladies to step up and fill crucial positions in various industries - including farming. Their hard work ensured that food production remained steady amidst challenging times. These unsung heroes proved that gender barriers could be shattered when duty called. Through their efforts, they not only contributed significantly to sustaining their communities but also demonstrated resilience in times of adversity. Charlie Ley's print transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the sacrifices made by these inspiring women who fearlessly took on roles traditionally reserved for men. It serves as a poignant reminder of how unity and determination prevailed even in one of history's darkest chapters – World War Two.
