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
In this print titled "Royal Academy of dancing with special guest Josephine the Skeleton model" taken in June 1952, we are transported back to a time of unique entertainment and unconventional teaching methods. The image showcases a group of women gathered at the prestigious Royal Academy of Dancing, eagerly observing their special guest - none other than Josephine the Skeleton model. Amidst an era dominated by traditional instruction, this photograph captures a moment that breaks free from conventionality. With humor and curiosity painted on their faces, these women engage in an unusual dance class where they learn intricate movements alongside their bony companion. It is evident that this unorthodox approach to teaching brought laughter and lightheartedness into the studio. The juxtaposition between elegance and eccentricity is striking as dancers clad in graceful attire gracefully twirl around while Josephine stands tall, her skeletal frame serving as both inspiration and amusement. This snapshot encapsulates not only the spirit of entertainment during the 1950s but also highlights how creativity can be harnessed even within structured environments like dance academies. As we delve into Memory Lane Prints' collection, it becomes clear that historical moments such as these deserve recognition for their ability to challenge norms and spark joy through unexpected means. Through this single photograph, Mirrorpix invites us to celebrate those who dare to think outside the box while reminding us that even skeletons have something valuable to teach us about movement and grace.
