Matisse's signature cutout style is beautifully reproduced in this 1995 reproduction of the poster originally printed by Mourlot in 1951 to honor the year-end ball of the École des Arts Décoratifs. For Matisse, the use of paper cutouts represented the apotheosis of his work, bringing together drawing, color, and sculpture. Use a clean, soft, lint-free cloth to clean the glass. Tru Vue recommends using a micro-fiber cloth. Spray a small amount of ammonia-free cleaner onto the cloth. Spraying on the cloth will prevent overspray. Press the cloth against the glass and clean in round, circular motions. Never spray directly onto the glass- the cleaner could leak into the frame and damage the image Archival Mat Board Also known as conservation mat board, this is the highest-quality paper matting material available. It is constructed of 100% acid- and lignin-free alpha-cellulose (wood pulp) and treated to resist deterioration and discoloration for up to 300 years. Archival-safe Foam Core Foam core is used to cushion the image in its frame. Ours is constructed of acid-and lignin-free face paper layered atop an extruded polystyrene core for superior resistance to temperature changes and humidity. Made in the U.S. by Ethan Allen artisans
