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
Captured in the midst of a nation at war, this remarkable print showcases the resilience and determination of the women who served in the First World War Women's Land Army. Taken in 1917 at Tregavethan Farm, Truro, Cornwall, it depicts a group of these brave women gathered together with their fellow comrades. Standing proudly in front of a hay cart is Mr Alfred Martin, owner of Tregavethan Farm, holding onto his loyal dog's paw. Seated just behind them is Mrs Martin, accompanied by a nurse dressed in her uniform. Surrounding them are these extraordinary women whose names have unfortunately been lost to time. Dressed in their distinctive uniforms consisting of boots, gaiters, felt hats and pale fabric overalls, they exude strength and unity. Some wear black armbands as a solemn reminder of those who sacrificed their lives for our freedom. Tregavethan Farm served as an essential training center for the Women's Land Army during this tumultuous period. The picturesque backdrop features towering trees and haystacks that stand witness to both the beauty and challenges faced on the home front. Photographed by Arthur William Jordan with great skill and sensitivity towards his subjects' dedication to agriculture and farming during wartime; this image serves as an enduring testament to their invaluable contribution to our nation's history.
