Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card.

Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "English converts to Rome including Newman, skating on thin ice while, on the left, Pusey and his Anglo-Catholic Ritualistic friends test the ice before committing themselves" we are transported back to London in 1869. The renowned cartoonist John Tenniel masterfully captures a moment of religious tension and uncertainty. The image depicts a frozen lake as a metaphorical representation of the delicate balance between different branches of Christianity during that time. On one side, we see English converts to Roman Catholicism led by Newman cautiously gliding across the icy surface. Their decision to embrace the Roman faith is portrayed as daring and risky. On the other side of the lake, Pusey and his group of Anglo-Catholic Ritualistic friends can be seen tentatively testing the strength of the ice before fully committing themselves. This symbolizes their hesitation in embracing Roman Catholicism completely. Tenniel's cartoon from Punch magazine not only showcases his artistic brilliance but also serves as a commentary on religious conversion and its consequences within society. It highlights how individuals were grappling with questions of faith and loyalty during this period. This thought-provoking image reminds us that religion has always been an intricate tapestry interwoven with personal beliefs, societal expectations, and historical context. It invites us to reflect upon our own journeys in matters of faith while appreciating Tenniel's ability to capture such complex themes through artistry alone.
