I wanted to be a ballerina but didn't have the courage to talk to my parents about it. The strength, beauty, and grace ballet dancers have as they move is fascinating. This giclée is focused on the ballerina's shoe.

The Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre says on their website, "Pointe shoes are specially made shoes worn by ballerinas to allow them to dance on the tips of their toes. Pointe shoes look dainty, but they really aren’t. The tip of the shoe is a rigid box made of densely packed layers of fabric, cardboard and/or paper hardened by glue. The dancer depends on it to be extremely sturdy: The entire weight of her body is balanced on a small platform in that box! The rest of the shoe is made of leather, cotton and satin. Each shoe is custom made, and hand crafted to fit each dancer’s unique specifications. No two pairs of pointe shoes are identical!"

This is a museum-quality print made on thick and durable matte paper. Add a wonderful accent to your room or office with this print that is sure to brighten any space.

FRAMING

• Have a professional unroll, flatten the paper, and help you select the correct frame

 

 "This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, and shipped from the manufacturer, which is why it takes a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, and unused back stock for me, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions. Also, the price for this reproduction art print is low because this artwork does not come with my signature."
