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 19th-century cartoon etching by George Cruikshank transports us back to a time of wit and levity. The print, titled "Now that, I heard Conversation - Hallo! Jack vare are you a-going to?" captures a humorous exchange between two men in Victorian England. One man, clearly intoxicated, enthusiastically shares his plans with the other: attending a grand concert at the prestigious Argyll Rooms. Cruikshank's keen observation and artistic skill shine through as he portrays the comical scene with intricate detail. The Argyll Rooms, known for hosting extravagant balls and musical performances exclusively attended by the wealthy elite, adds an element of irony to the conversation. Perhaps Cruikshank himself overheard this amusing dialogue and couldn't resist immortalizing it in his artwork. The etching showcases classic 19th-century style with its engraved lines and meticulous attention to facial expressions and body language. It is a testament to Cruikshank's fame as one of the era's most renowned social caricaturists. As we gaze upon this delightful print, we are reminded of the timeless appeal of humor across generations. It serves as both entertainment and commentary on society during that period—a snapshot into Victorian culture filled with laughter and amusement. Whiteway has expertly reproduced this iconic piece from Fine Art Storehouse so that we can continue to appreciate Cruikshank's genius even centuries later.
