31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 1800s, offering a glimpse into the world of apprenticeship and craftsmanship. In this hand-colored woodcut, we witness a young carpenter's apprentice diligently planing a block of wood. The image exudes skill and determination as the child laborer showcases his talent in woodworking. The vintage aesthetic adds an air of heritage and tradition to this historic illustration. It serves as a reminder of the commerce and trade that thrived during the 18th and 19th centuries, where manual labor was highly valued. The tools of the trade, such as chisels and planes, are prominently displayed, emphasizing their importance in shaping wooden creations. While it is impossible to overlook the presence of child labor within this historical context, it is crucial to acknowledge its existence without glorifying or endorsing it. This art piece allows us to reflect on our progress since then while appreciating the craftsmanship exhibited by these young workers. With every stroke of his plane against wood, this apprentice carpenter contributes not only to his own growth but also leaves behind a tangible mark on history itself. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from North Wind Picture Archives, we are reminded that even in challenging circumstances like child labor, there can still be beauty found within hard work and dedication.
