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.

The Political Leotard - A Humorous Satire on Defeat and Politics in 19th Century Britain
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a satirical engraving titled "The Political Leotard" by the renowned artist John Tenniel. Created in 1868, during a time of political turmoil in England, this cartoon humorously depicts Benjamin Disraeli, Earl of Beaconsfield, amidst the chaos of parliamentary defeat. In this amusing scene, Disraeli is portrayed wearing a leotard adorned with various symbols representing his political office. With an expression of resignation on his face, he holds a morning paper that likely brings news of yet another setback. The cartoon cleverly reflects the frustrations and challenges faced by politicians during this era. Tenniel's artwork brilliantly combines wit and satire to comment on the state of British politics at the time. Through his scathing portrayal, he highlights not only Disraeli's personal struggles but also larger issues such as Germany's growing influence in Europe. With its detailed caricature and clever symbolism, "The Political Leotard" offers viewers a glimpse into both English society and European politics during this period. It serves as a reminder that even amidst defeat and adversity, there is room for levity and laughter. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate Tenniel's artistic genius while providing insight into historical events that shaped modern-day Britain.
