Beer Comique Dresses Interval Molyneux Opera Premet Things 1924
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
In this photograph from the Mary Evans Picture Library, two elegantly dressed women, Beer and Premet, are seen enjoying an evening at the Opera Comique in Paris, France, in 1924. The image, titled "In a Theatre Box (In a box at the Opera Comique, Paris, their evening dresses by Molyneux: 2, Beer and Premet can hardly be seen: but when the interval comes, things will be different)," offers a glimpse into the opulence and allure of the opera experience during the Roaring Twenties. The women's stunning evening dresses, designed by the renowned fashion house Molyneux, are the true stars of the photograph. Their intricate beading, flowing silks, and elegant lines exude sophistication and glamour. Despite their exquisite attire, their faces are partially obscured, hinting at the excitement and anticipation that lies ahead during the interval. The Opera Comique, a historic Parisian theater, served as the backdrop for this enchanting moment. The theater, which opened in 1888, was known for its operettas and light entertainment, making it the perfect destination for an evening out. The women's can, or private box, adds to the exclusivity and luxury of their experience. As the title suggests, the interval – the intermission between acts – is when things will be different for Beer and Premet. The opera experience was not just about the performance; it was also about the socializing and enjoying the company of others. The interval provided an opportunity for patrons to mingle, exchange gossip, and perhaps even make new acquaintances. This photograph offers a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time of elegance, luxury, and the magic of the opera. The women's timeless fashion and the allure of the Opera Comique continue to captivate us, reminding us of the enduring power of art and the enchantment of a night at the theater.
