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.

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
Danses de la haute école - Poses d'une école encore plus élevée" (High school dances. Poses from an even higher school), created by the renowned French artist Honore Daumier in 1853, is a captivating lithograph that showcases a whimsical and satirical take on the world of performing arts. This intriguing image is part of Daumier's "Croquis dramatiques" series, which highlights the absurdities and eccentricities of various theatrical performances. In this particular print, Daumier presents a lively scene of a circus ring filled with an assortment of actors and animals, all engaged in a bizarre dance routine. The title "High school dances. Poses from an even higher school" suggests a playful commentary on the rigorous training and extravagant poses required in both traditional schools and performing arts. The composition is rich in detail, with performers on horseback, men in elaborate costumes, and animals adding to the circus-like atmosphere. The rider in the center, with a serious expression, stands out as the ringmaster, directing the chaos below. The use of black and white contrasts effectively highlights the humor and satire in the scene, as well as the artist's masterful skill in lithography. This print, now held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, is a testament to Daumier's unique ability to poke fun at societal norms and the performing arts, making it a valuable addition to any art collection or exhibition focused on 19th-century art, satire, and theatricality.
