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
In this enchanting photograph, the elegant and iconic Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel (1883-1971), the renowned French fashion designer, is captured in a moment of leisurely respite with Baron Pantz on the French Riviera in 1931. The image, which exudes an air of sophistication and timeless glamour, was taken during a tennis match at the picturesque Roquebrune villa, one of the most beautiful properties on the Côte d'Azur. Coco Chanel, a trailblazer in the world of fashion, was known for her revolutionary designs that liberated women from the constraints of corsets and heavy fabrics, championing a more simplistic and chic aesthetic. Her influence extended far beyond the realm of haute couture, shaping the way women dressed and saw themselves in the 20th century. Baron Pantz, whose full name remains undisclosed, adds an intriguing element to this scene. His presence, along with Coco Chanel's, highlights the glamorous and vibrant social scene that thrived on the French Riviera during the 1930s. The tennis court, with its pristine white surface and green net, serves as the perfect backdrop for their friendly competition, a testament to their shared passion for sport and the joy of living life to the fullest. This photograph, with its evocative imagery and rich historical context, offers a glimpse into the lives of two famous personalities who left indelible marks on their respective fields – fashion and society – and continues to inspire us today.
