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 sketch of American jazz bandleader Paul Whiteman, created by the skilled hand of Italian artist Guiseppe Peres in London during the roaring twenties, offers a glimpse into the golden age of jazz and the cultural phenomenon that swept across the world in the 1920s. The image, titled "Sketch of the American Jazz band leader Paul Whiteman," was produced in 1923, a time when jazz music was breaking down social barriers and bringing people together on the dance floor. Paul Whiteman (1890-1967), a pioneering figure in jazz history, is depicted here in the prime of his career, exuding confidence and charisma. Dressed in a sharp suit and holding his baton, he commands the attention of the room. The intricate lines and bold strokes of Peres' art deco style bring the scene to life, transporting us back to an era of glamour, excitement, and innovation. The image was likely published in a magazine, further spreading the influence of jazz music and Paul Whiteman's reputation as a leading bandleader. The lively atmosphere of a ballroom or dance hall seems to emanate from the page, as dancers twirl and sway in the background, lost in the rhythm of the music. This evocative sketch is a testament to the power of jazz to transcend borders and bring people together, making it an essential addition to any collection of jazz history or art deco art. With its rich history and timeless appeal, this image remains a captivating reminder of the enduring legacy of Paul Whiteman and the golden age of jazz.
