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 captured by the Western Mail Archive, we are transported back to the winter of 1978 in the picturesque village of Amroth, Pembrokeshire, West Wales. As a blizzard rages on and snow blankets the ground, shoppers can be seen braving the extreme weather conditions as they make their way home after purchasing essential supplies and groceries. The scene is reminiscent of a bygone era when winters were harsher and communities relied heavily on local shops like Summerhill Stores for their daily needs. The resilience of these customers is evident as they navigate through the severe cold, determined to return safely to their warm homes. Amidst this wintry backdrop, women dominate the frame - strong-willed individuals who refuse to let adverse weather deter them from fulfilling their responsibilities. Their determination serves as an inspiration even today. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also tells a story about human perseverance in challenging circumstances. It reminds us that no matter how harsh or unforgiving nature may be, our indomitable spirit will always prevail. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Memory Lane Prints, it evokes nostalgia for simpler times and highlights the importance of community support during difficult seasons. Let it serve as a reminder that even amidst adversity, there is strength in unity and hope for brighter days ahead.
