1892 Diary Faces Griffin Grossmith Made
31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 print captures a moment straight out of the pages of "Diary of a Nobody" by George and Weedon Grossmith. Published in 1892, this historical novel follows the daily life and misadventures of Charles Pooter, an ordinary man with grand aspirations. In this scene, the Griffin Boys can be seen making faces through the windows, adding a touch of mischief to an otherwise mundane day.
The image perfectly encapsulates the humor and charm of this beloved classic, offering a glimpse into Victorian-era London society. The detailed depiction of the boys' expressions brings to life one of the many humorous encounters that Pooter finds himself entangled in throughout his diary.
As we gaze upon this print from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back in time to a world where simple pleasures and everyday occurrences were documented with wit and insight. The playful nature of the Griffin Boys serves as a reminder that even in times gone by, children found ways to entertain themselves at the expense of others.
Whether you are a fan of literature or simply appreciate glimpses into history, this print is sure to delight all who view it. It is a testament to the enduring appeal and relevance of "Diary of a Nobody," reminding us that some stories truly stand the test of time.
