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
This print, titled "Musicians on the streets of London, 1841-43" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Victorian-era London. The pencil sketch by George Scharf the Elder beautifully captures a vibrant scene filled with music, joy, and entertainment. In this lively composition, we see a diverse group of musicians passionately performing for passersby. A man skillfully plays an organ while a woman gracefully handles her violin. Beside them stands a child eagerly singing along, adding their youthful voice to the melody. On another corner of the street, two children captivate onlookers with their mesmerizing skills on the xylophone and hammered dulcimer. The atmosphere is alive with energy as these talented buskers bring life to the cityscape. Their music resonates through every stroke of Scharf's pencil; you can almost hear their harmonies blending together amidst the hustle and bustle around them. This artwork not only showcases individual talent but also highlights how music has always been an integral part of human connection and expression throughout history. It serves as a reminder that even in times long gone by, artists found solace in sharing their craft with others. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era where street performances were cherished forms of entertainment for both young and old alike – a testament to our enduring love affair with music across generations.
