31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 "Old milkman and his affectionate horse, delivering milk from a churn in Monmouth, Wales" we are transported back to a simpler time. The image beautifully captures the essence of rural life in Monmouth, Wales, where tradition and community values were deeply ingrained. The focal point of the photograph is undoubtedly the endearing bond between the elderly milkman and his loyal equine companion. Their connection is palpable as they work together seamlessly to deliver fresh milk to households across town. The weathered face of the old milkman tells stories of years spent on these very streets, while his gentle touch speaks volumes about his love for both his craft and his trusted steed. As our gaze wanders beyond their heartfelt interaction, we notice an antique churn that serves as a vessel for this precious liquid sustenance. Its presence symbolizes a bygone era when doorstep deliveries were commonplace; when neighbors relied on one another for daily essentials rather than impersonal supermarket aisles. This remarkable photograph by General evokes nostalgia within us all – reminding us of simpler times when human connections were cherished above convenience. It invites us to reflect upon our own lives today: have we lost sight of those personal interactions that once defined communities? Can we learn from this humble scene captured in Monmouth? Through its timeless beauty and poignant narrative, this print encourages us to appreciate the value of genuine relationships amidst an ever-changing world.
