31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 image showcases the legendary American dancer Loie Fuller (Mary Louise Fuller) in the midst of her mesmerizing Serpentintanz or Serpentine Dance, performed at the Palace Theatre in London on March 8, 1912. Loie Fuller, known for her innovative and dramatic dance techniques, is seen gracefully leaning backwards in her voluminous, flowing costume. The intricately designed attire, reminiscent of a serpent or a swirling vortex, was a hallmark of her unique dance style. The Serpentine Dance was a groundbreaking performance that involved the use of large, billowing fabrics that Fuller manipulated with gas jets, creating the illusion of a living, breathing serpent. This dance marked a significant departure from traditional ballet and paved the way for modern dance. In this photograph, taken by Ferdinand von Reznicek for the Grenville Collins Postcard Collection, Loie Fuller's dramatic pose and the ethereal quality of her costume are on full display. The image captures the essence of the 1910s, a time of artistic experimentation and innovation. The Serpentine Dance became an iconic moment in dance history, and Loie Fuller's influence can still be felt in contemporary dance and performance art.
