Annoyed Arrive Arriving Audience Bateman Seats 1926
17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
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. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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 Couple Who Caught the Last Train: A Tale of 1920s Theatrical Etiquette In this evocative black-and-white photograph, we witness a moment of both anticipation and annoyance unfolding at a bustling theatre entrance in the 1920s. The year is 1926, and the era of glamour and elegance is in full swing. The couple, dressed to impress, are seen hurrying towards the theatre, their faces reflecting a mix of excitement and urgency. Their late arrival, however, is causing quite a stir amongst the already seated audience. The disapproving gazes of the patrons are palpable, their annoyance evident as they shift in their seats, muttering disapprovingly. The man, wearing a dapper suit and hat, attempts to usher his companion, a stunningly dressed woman, towards their seats as quickly as possible. Despite the inconvenience caused, the couple's determination to make it to the show is evident. The theatre, with its grandiose architecture and ornate decor, looms in the background, a symbol of the opulence and grandeur of the era. This scene, a common occurrence during the 1920s, serves as a reminder of the importance of punctuality and the unspoken rules of theatre etiquette. This photograph, captured in 1926, offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era of elegance, style, and the magic of live entertainment. It is a poignant reminder of the enduring allure of the theatre and the timeless tradition of making it to the show on time.
