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
The Bully of the Neighbourhood" is a powerful and evocative painting by American artist John George Brown, created in the late 19th century. This masterpiece is now part of the esteemed collection at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Madrid, Spain. The painting depicts a young boy, barefoot and wearing an apron, standing defiantly in front of his house, a cigar clenched between his teeth. He is the "bully of the neighborhood," a cocky and brazen figure who exudes an air of intimidation. The boy's bigheaded and angry expression conveys a sense of fury and confrontation, as if daring anyone to challenge him. Despite his menacing demeanor, the boy's friends gather around him, offering him support and solidarity. One girl looks on with concern, her expression revealing a hint of fear. The other children in the group seem to accept the bully's behavior as part of daily life in the neighborhood. The painting offers a poignant glimpse into the world of childhood, where differences and conflicts can loom large. The modest house in the background and the lamppost casting a warm glow on the scene add to the sense of a humble, working-class neighborhood. Brown's use of color and light creates a vivid and textured image, capturing the raw emotions and complexities of human experience. The painting invites us to reflect on the challenges and triumphs of infancy and childhood, and the ways in which we navigate the social dynamics of our neighborhoods and communities. Overall, "The Bully of the Neighborhood" is a compelling and thought-provoking work of contemporary art that continues to resonate with audiences today.
