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
1. Title: "A Vision of Jazz Age Elegance: The Woman in Powder Box Costume" This image showcases a woman dressed in a powder box costume, an exquisite creation from the roaring twenties. The lithograph, hand-colored using pochoir stencils, was published in "Our Fancy Dress Costumes," a Parisian publication in 1928. The woman's attire is a stunning representation of the nostalgic charm and allure of the Jazz Age. The powder box costume features a voluminous hoop skirt, reminiscent of the Victorian era, contrasted with modern elements such as the tasseled puffhat and the powderpuff held in her hand. The powderbox, a symbol of feminine vanity, is integrated into the design of the skirt, adding an intriguing twist to the ensemble. The pochoir stencil hand-coloring technique adds depth and vibrancy to the print, bringing the costume to life with rich hues and intricate details. The woman's expression, adorned with a playful smile, exudes a sense of joy and excitement, as if she is ready to attend a masquerade party or dance the night away. This image is a testament to the historical significance of the twenties, a time of cultural revolution and artistic expression. The powder box costume embodies the contrasting influences of the past and the future, making it a cherished piece of historical fashion. The lithograph, with its intricate details and beautiful hand-coloring, serves as a window into the past, allowing us to appreciate the elegance and charm of a bygone era. It is a reminder of the enduring allure of the Jazz Age and the impact it continues to have on our collective cultural consciousness.
