Armband Front Home Plants Shrubs Wartime Colorized Colourized Plant Pot
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 from the Royal Cornwall Museum showcases a remarkable member of the First World War Women's Land Army, captured in Truro, Cornwall around 1917. The portrait, skillfully colorized by Coral Walters, brings to life the vibrant history of this courageous woman who played an essential role during wartime. In this image, we see an unknown heroine proudly donning her distinctive cornish ring and armband as symbols of her dedication to serving her country. Standing confidently in front of a lush backdrop of shrubs and plants, she exudes resilience and determination. The carefully arranged plant pot beside her hints at the nurturing spirit that these women brought to their work on the land. Despite being far from home and facing unprecedented challenges, they created a sense of warmth and familiarity amidst the chaos of war. The addition of color breathes new life into this historical photograph, allowing us to connect with its subject on a deeper level. It reminds us that these women were not just black-and-white figures from our past but real individuals who made significant contributions during times of great adversity. As we gaze upon this striking portrait, let us pay tribute to all those unsung heroes who served in the Women's Land Army—a testament to their unwavering commitment and invaluable service for our nation.
