Framing
We recommend book-mounting this print in a wide passe-partout and then framing it in a black wooden box. This classic method not only gives visual priority to the image but also fits seamlessly into most interiors. However, if you prefer a different look, other framing options are also available. Additionally, to ensure the highest levels of production, all of our frames are handcrafted to museum standards by one of the UK’s leading workshops. Please note that prices include tax, but exclude framing and shipping costs.
Shipping
We aim to ship unframed works within 2 weeks and framed works within 6 weeks. All orders are shipped from the UK and we always strive to deliver your print as quickly as possible. However, the delivery times may vary, depending on the specific artwork and your location. For exact details, please get in touch. Please note that prices include tax, but exclude framing and shipping costs.
Artwork In Detail
Mary, Frank’s first wife, dozes in a stark, undecorated room, apparelled in dappled light. Andrea, her child, looks into the lens as one ray of light cuts above the wood and highlights their gaze and expression of consternation. It was photographs such as this one that Kerouac marvelled at when he wrote that Frank’s grey film mystically and miraculously captured the colour of human kind.

EnquireRobert Frank (1924–2019) was a Swiss-born photographer and filmmaker whose work transformed modern documentary photography. Best known for his groundbreaking 1958 book The Americans, Frank captured the everyday lives, tensions, and contradictions of postwar America with raw honesty and poetic sensitivity. His unpolished, spontaneous style broke from traditional photographic conventions, influencing generations of artists and shaping the visual language of contemporary photography and film.
