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 vibrant jazz age of the 1920s in Harlem, New York. The theater poster, a true piece of art itself, advertises an exciting jazz program at the iconic Lafayette Theater. As we gaze upon this vintage advertisement, we are transported to a time when African American culture thrived amidst the bustling city. The poster features bold text that grabs our attention and promises an unforgettable performance by the Gertie Miller Trio. With its elegant typography and artistic design, it reflects the energy and creativity of the Harlem Renaissance - a cultural movement that celebrated African American arts during this era. Mamie Smith's name stands out prominently on the poster, hinting at her significant contribution as one of the first African American women to record blues music. Her presence adds another layer of historical significance to this already remarkable piece. As we admire this photograph from Granger Art on Demand, we can't help but imagine ourselves stepping into that theater in North Harlem all those years ago. We envision a crowd eagerly gathering for an evening filled with soulful melodies and infectious rhythms that defined jazz music during its golden age. This image serves as a powerful reminder of how entertainment has always been intertwined with social progress and cultural expression throughout history. It captures not only a moment in time but also encapsulates an entire era where art flourished against all odds.
