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 hand-colored woodcut takes us back to the 1800s, offering a glimpse into the rich history of Los Angeles. The image showcases a Mexican village nestled within the bustling streets of this vibrant American city. A Mexican pulque carrier is depicted, his burro dutifully carrying barrels of this traditional alcoholic beverage through town. The illustration transports us to an era when animal power was relied upon for transportation and commerce. It serves as a reminder of the diverse ethnic groups that contributed to shaping California's heritage, particularly the Spanish-speaking population who played a significant role in its development. As we admire this vintage artwork, it becomes evident that Los Angeles has always been a melting pot of cultures and traditions. This snapshot captures not only the physical landscape but also reflects on the social fabric woven by Latino communities such as Chicanos and Mexican Americans. Through this visual time capsule, we are reminded of North America's complex history and how it continues to shape our present-day society. Let us appreciate these glimpses into our past as they provide valuable insights into our collective identity as Americans.
