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
This print takes us back to the bustling Dewhirst Factory in Dormanstown on a chilly February day in 1978. The image captures the first stage of cutting out, where skilled workers meticulously handle an impressive stack of fabric layers. A staggering 240 layers, each measuring a whopping 30 meters long, are neatly arranged for production. The factory floor is a hive of activity as dedicated employees laboriously cut through the fabric using state-of-the-art machinery. This snapshot showcases the immense scale and precision required in clothing manufacturing during this era. The significance of this momentous task is not lost on us; it represents more than just cutting fabric. It symbolizes the dedication and craftsmanship that went into every garment produced at Dewhirst Factory.
