Double matted and framed. The entire piece measures 27.5 inches by 22.5 inches. An excellent piece featuring the iconic Buchanan in the classic film The Great Gatsby.

American fashion designer Donald Brooks designed over 3500 costumes for the stage and film; his awards include The New York Drama Critics Award, a Tony nomination, and the Emmy Award. Based on F. Scott Fitzgerald's 1925 novel, the 1974 film version of The Great Gatsby featured Mia Farrow as Daisy Buchanan and Robert Redford as the title role of Jay Gatsby. The Rosecliff and Marble House mansions in Newport, Rhode Island, were used for Gatsby's house while scenes at the Buchanans' home were filmed at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire, England. The film won two Academy Awards for Best Costume Design and Best Music.
