Published in 1867, 'A Parisian Ball - Dancing at the Mabille, Paris' captures the vibrant, kinetic energy of Parisian nightlife during the Second Empire, rendered with the keen, journalistic eye of American master Winslow Homer. Originally created during Homer's pivotal sojourn in Paris, this work documents the famous open-air dance hall, Jardin Mabille, reflecting the era's shifting social dynamics and the rise of modern leisure. Our archival reproduction preserves the intricate linework and tonal complexity of the original wood engraving. To ensure an uncompromising presentation, every format—including our premium canvas—is finished with a consistent, clean white gallery border that floats the artwork in its true historical proportions without cropping, offering a refined, gallery-ready presentation suitable for architectural interiors.
About Your Border
Every format — Fine Art Print, Framed Fine Art Print, Canvas and Framed Canvas — is supplied with a clean white gallery border framing the image on all four sides. The border is sized in proportion to the piece — approximately 10% of the shortest edge on each side (for example, about 3 cm of white border on a 30 cm-wide piece) — so the artwork keeps its standard proportions with no cropping and is ready to hang or frame straight away. If you prefer, you can also place your own mount/mat on top.
Would you like a different border width, a borderless full-bleed version, or any other adjustment? Just let us know within 24 hours of ordering and we'll tailor it for you at no extra cost.
