The Micthell Library Sign Print (Mounted Size 10 Inch By 12 Inch)

Description

The Mitchell Library Sign Mounted Print

This print is of the Mitchell Library sign created by the Glasgow-based artist A Sign of Humour as a tribute to the Glasgow public library system. Many of these libraries were created in the late Victorian and Edwardian eras to provide a source of knowledge, education and inspiration to the city’s population, and particularly its workers and its children. The sign features the distinctive statue of literature from the top of the city’s Mitchell Library, one of the largest public reference libraries in Europe, and carries the slogan ‘Warning Mind-expanding knowledge ahead’.

The print itself is 7.25 inches by 9 inches (18.5 cm by 23cm), and it comes mounted in a white 1.5 inch (3.5 cm) mount with a total size of 10 inches by 12 inches (25.5 cm by 30.5cm). This print is signed by A Sign of Humour.
