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 vintage photograph captures Maurice Pluthero, known as the "fat boy of Petersham" on November 11,1916. Despite his weight, Maurice is seen smiling brightly in this monochrome portrait that exudes personality and charm. The image transports us back to early 20th century Europe, showcasing a young boy who stands out due to his obesity. Maurice's plump figure is evident, highlighting the societal perception of weight during that era. However, it is his infectious smile that truly steals the show. Set against a backdrop of a lush garden, Maurice's fashion choices reflect the trends of the time. His attire hints at an innocence associated with childhood while also emphasizing his unique appearance. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph raises questions about health and well-being in children during this period. It serves as a reminder of how attitudes towards body image have evolved over time. Captured by ?TopFoto from TopFoto archives, this print offers a glimpse into history through one individual's story. While commercial use may not be mentioned here, it remains an invaluable piece for historians and photography enthusiasts alike seeking to understand society's perceptions surrounding weight problems in children nearly a century ago.
