Looking Sculpture Statue Watching
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
In this print from September 1972, we are transported back to Camp Hill in Birmingham. Passersby can be seen pausing in their tracks, captivated by the magnificent King Kong Statue that dominates the scene. This larger-than-life sculpture stands tall against the backdrop of a bustling city street, its imposing presence drawing both admiration and curiosity. The men depicted in the photograph stand together, engrossed in contemplation as they gaze up at the awe-inspiring artwork before them. Their expressions reveal a mix of wonderment and intrigue, perhaps pondering the artist's intention or simply marveling at the sheer craftsmanship on display. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates a moment frozen in time - an era when art had the power to stop people in their tracks and provoke thought. The 1970s were marked by artistic experimentation and cultural shifts, making this image all the more significant as it captures not only a specific location but also an entire period defined by change. As we delve into our memories through this evocative print from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded of how public art has always held immense power to inspire emotions and spark conversations among strangers passing by. It serves as a testament to our shared human experience - one where even amidst our busy lives, we find ourselves compelled to pause and appreciate moments of beauty that surround us.
