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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1970s, we are transported back to a significant moment in the history of George Eliot Hospital in Nuneaton. The image captures the Matron of the hospital, Miss A. Barry, standing at the center with her assistant, Mrs. M. Jones, on her left side. Both women exude an air of determination and purpose as they give instructions to a group of nurses. The occasion for this gathering is none other than their upcoming visit to London's House of Commons where they will meet with their local Member of Parliament, Mr. Leslie Huckfield. The nurses have been diligently preparing themselves under the guidance of these two remarkable women who are seen here sharing invaluable insights on how to effectively raise important points during their meeting with Mr. Huckfield. Mrs. Jones holds a special role within this campaign as one of its organizers for "Raise the Roof" in Nuneaton – a cause that has clearly united and mobilized both staff and community members alike. As Tuesday approaches, anticipation fills the air as these dedicated nurses prepare to embark on their journey towards advocating for fair wages alongside countless others attending discussions by the Whitley Committee. This powerful snapshot not only immortalizes a pivotal moment in time but also serves as a testament to unity and resilience within healthcare professionals fighting for what they believe is right - better conditions and just compensation for their vital contributions at George Eliot Hospital.
