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 hand-coloured engraving from 1802 depicts a satirical Gillray cartoon on the controversial practice of vaccination against Smallpox using Cowpox serum. In 1796, English physician Edward Jenner proved the efficacy of this preventive measure, but faced continued opposition from skeptics.
The image captures the essence of the debate surrounding immunization during that time, with scathing satire aimed at those who doubted its effectiveness. Despite Jenner's groundbreaking discovery, there were still many who questioned the validity and safety of using cowpox serum to combat smallpox.
Through this historical print, we are reminded of the importance of scientific progress and innovation in medicine. Jenner's work paved the way for modern vaccination practices and has saved countless lives over the centuries.
As we look back on this piece of medical history, we can appreciate how far we have come in our understanding and treatment of diseases. The legacy of Edward Jenner lives on through his contributions to public health, and serves as a reminder that sometimes even revolutionary ideas face resistance before they are accepted by society.
