Seller's Description
WOW! What a great looking card! I'm sure glad my parents brought back a handful of these from their trip to Europe in 1956.
Absolutely pristine and sharp all around and as good as it looks, this is an RKP reproduction by permission of the Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's Cathedral, and made in Great Britain. The back tells this history:
"THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD by W. HOLMAN HUNT was presented to St. Paul's Cathedral by the late Rt. Hon. Charles Booth. It is a replica of the original in Keble College, Oxford, but comparison shows many differences. The Keble College picture was painted in 1851 and the St. Paul's in 1900, hence the two dates which appear on the replica. Before being dedicated in St. Paul's in 1908 it was taken round the world, a sermon in a frame. Holman Hunt's remains are interred in the crypt of St. Paul's."
