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
This powerful photograph captures the resilience and strength of an Indian woman who has survived the devastating Smallpox epidemic in the 1970s. Despite her triumph over this deadly disease, she carries its indelible marks on her face, serving as a constant reminder of her battle against adversity. The image depicts a vertical composition with two young boys looking away in the background, symbolizing the generational impact of this illness. The focus is firmly placed on the foreground, where our gaze meets the courageous woman's scarred visage. She wears a vibrant sari and covers her head with a headscarf, showcasing both her cultural identity and determination to move forward despite societal challenges. In India during that era, Smallpox was rampant and claimed countless lives. This photo serves as a poignant testament to not only one individual's survival but also highlights broader healthcare and medical issues faced by women in that time period. Captured by L Dale for WHO (World Health Organization), this candid moment freezes time, allowing us to reflect upon humanity's ability to endure even amidst great suffering. It reminds us of our shared responsibility to combat diseases like smallpox through vaccination efforts and improved healthcare systems. As we observe this remarkable woman's scars etched across her face, let it be an everlasting call for compassion towards those affected by illness while inspiring hope for a future free from such epidemics.
