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
This historical print captures a pivotal moment in British history during the height of the Chartism movement in April 1848. The cartoon depicts a working man presenting his charter to Lord John Russell, symbolizing the demands and aspirations of the Chartists for political reform. The scene is filled with tension and anticipation as the working man stands confidently before Lord Russell, who appears somewhat taken aback by the boldness of this gesture.
The image reflects the spirit of defiance and determination that characterized the Chartists, who were advocating for universal suffrage, secret ballots, equal representation, and other reforms to improve conditions for working-class people in Britain. Despite facing opposition from government officials like Lord Russell, the Chartists remained steadfast in their pursuit of social justice and equality.
Through this cartoon, we are transported back to a time when ordinary individuals dared to challenge established power structures and demand their rights as citizens. It serves as a reminder of the importance of grassroots movements in shaping our society and pushing for progress. Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this piece of history through their collection, allowing us to reflect on past events that continue to resonate today.
