31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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
The Downpour, set design for a ballet, 1906" captures the essence of a dramatic weather event through the artistic vision of Leon Bakst. In this print, we are transported to a park in Russia where an overcast sky looms above. The artist skillfully uses shades of blue and white to depict the pouring rain as it drenches everything in its path. A lone female figure is seen walking hurriedly with an umbrella, her clothes clinging to her body from the soaking rain. Despite the misfortune of being caught in such a downpour, she exudes elegance and grace as she navigates through the storm. Her art deco-inspired dress and shawl add a touch of glamour to this otherwise wet and gloomy scene. Bakst's illustration beautifully portrays both movement and stillness simultaneously. The woman's profile suggests that she is strolling along with purpose, while the rushing lines convey urgency and haste. This dynamic composition adds depth to the artwork, making it come alive before our eyes. As we admire this piece from the early 20th century, we can almost hear classical music playing softly in the background - perhaps part of an accompanying ballet performance. Through his masterful use of color and art media like pencil and watercolor, Bakst transports us into his world filled with drama and emotion. This print serves as a reminder that even amidst unexpected storms in life, there is beauty to be found if we take time to appreciate it.
