Activist Defence Defences Hammer 1975 Elgin Avenue Maida Vale Nail
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 captures Piers Corbyn, the younger brother of renowned Labour politician Jeremy Corbyn, in a moment of activism and determination. Taken in Maida Vale, West London in 1975, this snapshot provides a glimpse into Piers' involvement with The Young Liberals during his youth. In this particular scene, we witness Piers at The Squatters Commune on Elgin Avenue as he erects wire defences to protect fellow squatters from eviction by bailiffs. Armed with a hammer and nails, his resolute expression reflects his unwavering commitment to fighting for the rights of those facing displacement. The image exudes the spirit of activism that permeated the 1970s era. It serves as a testament to Piers' dedication to social justice causes even before embarking on his own unique path within politics. Photographer Alisdair MacDonald skillfully captures both the physicality of Piers' actions and the underlying political significance behind them. This photograph stands as a poignant reminder of an individual's ability to make a difference through grassroots efforts. As we delve into history through Memory Lane Prints like these, we are reminded that change is often driven by passionate individuals who are willing to take action against injustice.
