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
This print by Terry Fincher captures the scenes in West Berlin, West Germany shortly after the construction of the infamous Berlin Wall began on August 18th, 1961. Despite the division and tension caused by this Cold War barrier, daily life in West Berlin appears to continue as normal. The photograph offers a glimpse into an era marked by contrasting realities. In this snapshot of history, we see people going about their daily routines with resilience and determination. The bustling streets are filled with individuals engaged in various activities – from socializing to gambling at casinos and placing bets. It is a testament to the indomitable spirit of the people living under these challenging circumstances. The image not only showcases ordinary life continuing amidst political turmoil but also highlights how even during times of uncertainty, humans find solace in familiar pastimes and seek connections with others. Through this lens, Fincher's photograph becomes more than just a visual record; it becomes a symbol of hope and defiance against adversity. As we reflect on this moment frozen in time, let us remember that behind every historical event lies a tapestry of individual lives carrying on despite external pressures. This print serves as a reminder that while walls may divide physically, they cannot suppress human resilience or dampen our innate desire for connection and normalcy.
