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 captures the essence of Bartholomew Fair, London, showcasing the renowned Dutch woman who mesmerized audiences with her extraordinary talents. Created by Marcellus Laroon in the late 17th century, this engraving is a testament to Mrs. Cornelius Saftry's remarkable performances that enthralled spectators for decades. Mrs. Saftry was a trailblazer in her field, staging plays and rope dancing acts featuring "The famous Dutch woman's companies of rope dancers" during the annual Bartholomew Fair since 1677. What made her performances truly unique was her choice to don an androgynous costume, which continued to be worn by female acrobats well into the eighteenth century. In this particular image, we witness Mrs. Saftry displaying incredible balance as she performs acrobatics on both slack and tightropes. Her attire is equally striking; she wears a ruffled Holland shirt with frilled cuffs and a bow at the neck, complemented by sheer tights and men's trunk hose trimmed with fur. As we delve into this historical masterpiece, it becomes evident that Bartholomew Fair served as a hub for entertainment in London during those times. The fair brought together performers from various backgrounds - clowns, acrobats like Mrs. Saftry herself - all contributing to an atmosphere filled with wonder and excitement. Through this enchanting print from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to experience the magic of Barth
