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 titled "Women in The Next Parliament" takes us back to the historic General Election of 1922. In a time when women's political participation was still a rarity, this image showcases the determination and courage of twenty-eight female candidates who accepted invitations to contest seats. Among them is Mrs Lina Scott Gatty, an Independent Liberal Candidate for Huntingdonshire. Her poised portrait captures her strength and conviction as she dons an elegant hat that adds a touch of sophistication to her appearance. The monochrome aesthetic enhances the gravity of the moment, transporting us to an era where progress towards gender equality was slowly gaining momentum. The photograph not only immortalizes these remarkable women but also serves as a reminder of their significant contributions in shaping history. Their presence in this male-dominated arena challenges societal norms and paves the way for future generations of female leaders. As we admire this snapshot from Central News' collection, we are reminded that progress often comes at great cost and sacrifice. This image encapsulates both hope and resilience, inspiring us to continue fighting for equal representation in politics today.
