Bottom Brazier Chestnut Dived Johnny Pocket Seller

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame

FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. 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. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. 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 engraving titled "Johnny dived to the bottom of his pocket" we are transported back in time to witness a charming scene from 19th-century England. The artwork, created by an anonymous English School artist, showcases a young boy named Johnny engrossed in a street encounter. Amidst the hustle and bustle of the busy street, Johnny's attention is captured by a chestnut seller nearby. With curiosity and excitement evident on his face, he can't resist the temptation of purchasing some roasted chestnuts from the vendor's brazier. However, there seems to be one small obstacle standing between him and this delectable treat - his empty pockets. Undeterred by this setback, our resourceful protagonist takes matters into his own hands. Determination etched on his features, Johnny dives deep into the depths of his pocket in search of any hidden treasure that may grant him access to those mouthwatering chestnuts. This enchanting illustration was originally featured in Sunday Reading for the Young magazine published by Wells Gardner in 1884. It beautifully captures both the innocence and resilience often associated with childhood adventures. Through its intricate details and skillful execution, it transports us back to a simpler time when even mundane tasks like buying roasted chestnuts held immense joy for young hearts. This print is part of Bridgeman Images' collection and serves as a delightful reminder that sometimes all it takes is determination and resourcefulness to turn everyday moments into extraordinary memories.
