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
This stunning print captures the essence of Parisian nightlife in the late 19th century with its vibrant colors and intricate design. The poster advertises "The Gay Parisienne," a popular theatre production from 1896 that was sure to dazzle audiences with its avant-garde style and risqué themes.
The artwork exudes a sense of elegance and sophistication, typical of the Art Nouveau movement that was flourishing in Paris at the time. The graceful curves and flowing lines draw the viewer's eye towards the central figure, a glamorous Parisienne who embodies all the charm and allure of the city.
Intriguingly, this historical piece also hints at a more subversive side, as "gay" in this context likely refers to an underground culture or lifestyle that was not openly acknowledged during this period. It adds an extra layer of intrigue to an already captivating image.
Overall, this poster is a fascinating glimpse into both the artistic trends and social dynamics of Belle Époque Paris. It serves as a reminder of how art has always been intertwined with history, reflecting society's values, desires, and taboos. A true masterpiece from Mary Evans Picture Library that continues to captivate viewers over a century later.
