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. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 photograph captures a moment from the 1912 production of "The Balkan Princess," a musical comedy success written by Frederick Lonsdale and Frank Curzon, with music by Paul Rubens. The play, which premiered at the Prince of Wales Theatre in London in February 1910, tells the story of Princess Stephanie, who travels to a Bohemian restaurant in search of Duke Sergius. The image shows the princess, elegantly dressed and with an air of determination, as she scans the bustling restaurant crowd. The production, which was a huge success in London, went on to tour regional theaters, including the Theatre Royal in Exeter, as evidenced by the date on the photograph. The Balkan Princess was a reflection of the European cultural scene of the early 1910s, with its blend of drama, music, and Eastern European influences. The play's popularity can be attributed to its engaging storyline, memorable music, and the charisma of its leading actors. The photograph offers a glimpse into the world of live entertainment during this era, with its ornate costumes, elaborate sets, and lively performances. The Balkan Princess marked a significant moment in the history of musical comedy and continues to be celebrated for its enduring appeal. This image is a testament to the power of the stage to transport audiences to far-off lands and immerse them in a world of adventure and excitement.
