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 takes us back to the vibrant streets of 1955, where a horse-drawn fruiterer and greengrocer diligently makes his rounds. The mobile shop, adorned with an array of colorful fruits and vegetables, stands as a nostalgic symbol of a bygone era. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, our eyes are drawn to the young boy perched atop the cart, assisting in delivering fresh produce to eager customers. The image encapsulates the essence of community life during those decades; it transports us to a time when local vendors played an integral role in nourishing neighborhoods. The horse that pulls the cart is not just a mode of transportation but also represents tradition and simplicity in an increasingly modern world. General's expert lens captures every detail with remarkable clarity - from the weathered wooden wheels to each meticulously arranged crate brimming with nature's bounty. This photograph serves as both a visual feast for our senses and a poignant reminder of how much has changed over half a century. As we gaze upon this slice of history frozen in time, let us reflect on how far we have come while cherishing these glimpses into our collective past. It reminds us that progress may bring convenience, but there is something undeniably charming about simpler times when horses trotted through bustling streets delivering sustenance to grateful households.
