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.

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 the provocative artwork ""J ai baise ta bouche, Jokanaan (I kissed your mouth, John)"" by Aubrey Beardsley. Created in 1894 as an illustration for Oscar Wilde's play Salome, this line block print is a mesmerizing depiction of a climactic moment. The image portrays the severed head of John the Baptist, known as Jokanaan, being sensually kissed on the lips. It exudes an air of eroticism and decadence that was characteristic of the Art Nouveau movement during that time. Beardsley's distinctive aesthetic style is evident in this piece with its intricate lines and attention to detail. The composition evokes a sense of both beauty and darkness, challenging societal norms and pushing boundaries. The juxtaposition between religious symbolism and explicit imagery adds to the allure of this artwork. It invites viewers to contemplate themes such as desire, power dynamics, and forbidden love. As part of The Stapleton Collection held in private ownership but made available through Bridgeman Images, this print offers a glimpse into Beardsley's artistic genius. It serves as a testament to his ability to create visually striking pieces that provoke thought and stir emotions.
