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
Step into the roaring twenties with this delightful and humorous illustration by Rose le Quesne, titled "The Charleston," from 1927. The Charleston dance craze had swept the nation, and this print captures the fun and frustration of trying to master the complex steps with a partner. In the image, a modern couple stands in a living room, attempting to Charleston. The woman, dressed in a flapper dress and bobbed hair, looks determined as she tries to coordinate her movements with her partner. He, wearing a dapper suit and fedora, looks equally perplexed as they clumsily step on each other's toes. Their expressions of concentration and exasperation are relatable to anyone who has ever tried to learn a new dance move. The illustration also includes a few amusing details, such as the cat watching from the sidelines with a smirk and the broken vase in the background, a casualty of their clumsy attempts. The Charleston was a dance that required energy, coordination, and a good sense of humor. This print captures the essence of the dance craze and the spirit of the 1920s, making it a charming addition to any vintage-inspired decor or a fun conversation starter. So, take a moment to appreciate the humor in this illustration and remember that even the most elegant dances can be a bit of a challenge at first!
