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
This enchanting photograph captures the elegant and playful spirit of the Advertising Ball held in 1920, an annual event where the advertising industry came together to celebrate creativity and innovation. In the foreground, Miss Lily St. John, representing The Tatler magazine, dazzles in a replica costume of an eighteenth-century gentleman. The intricately detailed frock coat, complete with a tricorn hat adorned with a feather, a monocle, and a cane, symbolizes the brand's commitment to tradition and refinement. By her side, the radiant Evelyn Laye, representing its sister magazine, Eve, graces the scene in a stunning costume created for her by the renowned Harrods department store. The delicate fabric, elegant beading, and flowing train of her dress exude an air of sophistication and glamour, embodying the modern and feminine essence of Eve. The Advertising Ball was a much-anticipated event in the industry calendar, and the competition for the best costumes was always fierce. Miss St. John's impressive portrayal of an eighteenth-century gentleman earned her the first prize in Class L, a testament to her dedication and creativity. This image not only showcases the fashionable and imaginative costumes but also highlights the camaraderie and excitement that pervaded the Advertising Ball, making it an unforgettable night for all involved.
