Boys Danger Dangerous Derelict Merseyside Outdoors Play Safety
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
Adventure Playground: A Glimpse into a Bygone Era of Childhood". Step back in time to the gritty streets of Liverpool, Merseyside, in the 1970s. This print captures an adventure playground surrounded by rubble and dirt, offering a stark contrast between the innocence of childhood play and the harsh realities of urban decay. In this disused playground, boys with boundless energy find solace amidst dereliction. Their youthful spirits shine through as they fearlessly explore their surroundings, undeterred by danger lurking at every corner. The image serves as a poignant reminder that even in challenging environments, children possess an unwavering sense of curiosity and resilience. The backdrop may be less than ideal – broken swings hang lifelessly while overgrown weeds reclaim forgotten spaces – but it is precisely within these neglected landscapes that true adventures are born. With no safety measures or pristine equipment to confine their imaginations, these young adventurers embrace risk-taking and forge unforgettable memories together. This photograph transports us back to a time when outdoor play was paramount for childhood development; where scraped knees were badges of honor and muddy clothes were signs of epic escapades. It invites us to reflect on how our perception of safety has evolved over the years while cherishing those moments when we roamed freely without constant supervision. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, let us celebrate the indomitable spirit embodied by these children who found joy amidst adversity - reminding us all that adventure knows no bounds.
