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 print showcases a stunning costume design for a male dancer, dating back to the 17th century. Created by Henry Gissey or attributed to him, this exquisite artwork is made using pen, ink, watercolor, and gold on paper. Currently housed in the prestigious Victoria & Albert Museum in London, UK, this piece offers a glimpse into the opulent world of French ballet during that era. The intricate details of the costume design are truly remarkable. Every brushstroke and delicate touch of gold highlights the craftsmanship involved in its creation. This particular ensemble was crafted in Paris in June 1662 to commemorate the birth of the dauphin – an event of great significance at that time. As we admire this masterpiece from centuries ago, we can imagine how it would have adorned a talented danseur (male ballet dancer) during his performance. The elegance and grace exuded by such attire would undoubtedly enhance any dance routine and captivate audiences with its sheer beauty. Although we may not know much about the specific company or context behind this particular costume design, what remains clear is its timeless appeal. Its inclusion within Fine Art Finder's collection allows us to appreciate and preserve these historical treasures for generations to come without commercial use intentions.
