This poster is currently unbacked. At check out, you will be given the opportunity to add backing which would cost $80 and take approximately 6-8 weeks.
Linen backing is the industry standard of conservation. Canvas is stretchered and a sheet of acid free barrier paper is laid down. The poster is then pasted to the acid free paper using an acid free paste. This process is fully reversible and gives support to the poster. A border of linen is left around the poster and can be used by a framer to mount the poster so that nothing touches the poster itself. Backing is what we recommend for framing, and for any poster needing restoration.

Little is known about artist Rolf Stoll, designer of this a strikingly stylized poster for the 1929 Ball Dynamique organized by Cleveland's avant-garde Kokoon Arts Club. His composition features draped, sinuous figures in energetic motion, echoing the club's reputation for blending modernist aesthetics with spirited bohemian revelry. The design captures both the dynamism of the event and the artistic experimentation that defined the Kokoon circle during the late 1920s.
