Thomas Arthur (Tom) Browne (1872-1910) Stone Deaf. A vertical format part hand-coloured print taken from a Victorian issue of the "Boy's Own Paper", depicting an elderly lady purposefully stepping out along the middle of the highway and laden with shopping, whilst behind her a group of cyclists approach down the hill, the leader perched atop a high bicycle which, from the look of dismay on his face, is obviously out of control. Printed title in the lower margin and printed artist's signature in the bottom right-hand corner of the image. Sheet size 37 x 25cm. Mounted, framed and glazed. Some browning/staining through age, but otherwise in good, un-creased condition.
