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
In this print titled "National Characters Punks in Margate - 1979" captured by the talented photographer General, we are transported back to the vibrant punk scene of the late 1970s. The image showcases a group of rebellious individuals proudly displaying their unique national identities through their distinctive punk fashion. Set against the backdrop of Margate, a coastal town in England known for its rich cultural history, these punks exude an air of defiance and individuality. Each person's outfit is adorned with symbols and colors that represent their respective countries, creating a fascinating blend of cultures within this subculture. The photograph perfectly encapsulates the spirit of punk: raw energy, non-conformity, and a desire to challenge societal norms. Their bold hairstyles, piercings, tattoos, and DIY clothing reflect their rejection of mainstream ideals while embracing their own distinct heritage. General's expert composition captures every intricate detail – from the safety pins holding together torn garments to the defiant expressions on each face. The black-and-white aesthetic adds depth and intensity to this powerful snapshot frozen in time. This iconic image serves as a testament to both personal expression and unity among diverse communities within punk culture. It reminds us that even amidst rebellion and chaos, there is beauty in embracing our roots while forging our own paths forward.
