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 summer of 1931, where farming in rural West Sussex was a way of life. The image showcases Messrs. J. O. Lugg & Son of Billingshurst engaged in steam threshing, an essential process during harvest time. Photographed by George Garland, this remarkable piece from the Garland Collection at the West Sussex Record Office perfectly captures the essence of nostalgia and tradition. It transports us to a simpler era when horse-drawn farm machinery and traction engines were vital tools for agricultural work. The scene is set against a picturesque backdrop in the Petworth area, with rolling hills and lush green fields stretching as far as the eye can see. The sun shines brightly overhead, casting long shadows on both man and machine. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the hard work that went into sustaining our communities through agriculture. We can almost hear the rhythmic chugging sound emanating from the powerful steam engine while imagining farmers working tirelessly alongside their trusty horses. This print not only serves as a visual reminder of our rich farming heritage but also pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to cultivating these lands. It is a testament to their resilience and unwavering commitment to feeding generations past and present.
