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 print by Peter Price, we are transported back to the vibrant era of the 1970s. The image depicts a young couple and their faithful canine companion embarking on an adventurous journey along the motorway. With their thumbs outstretched and hope gleaming in their eyes, they eagerly attempt to hitchhike and secure a ride towards unknown destinations. The couple's fashion choices perfectly encapsulate the essence of 1970s style. The man dons bell-bottom jeans paired with a colorful patterned shirt, while his partner exudes effortless coolness in her flowing maxi dress adorned with floral prints. Their attire reflects not only the trends of that era but also signifies rebellion against societal norms. As they stand on the roadside, one cannot help but feel a sense of wanderlust and freedom emanating from this photograph. It captures an era when youth culture embraced unconventional means of travel as a way to explore new horizons and break away from traditional constraints. Amidst all this excitement, it is impossible to overlook their loyal four-legged friend who accompanies them on this daring escapade. This furry companion symbolizes companionship, loyalty, and perhaps even protection during uncertain times. Peter Price masterfully freezes this moment in time for us to reflect upon an era defined by its carefree spirit and desire for exploration. As we gaze at this remarkable photograph from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded that sometimes it takes courage to step into the unknown - whether it be through fashion or life itself
