Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.
Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc).

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Needles, a famous landmark located on the Isle of Wight. Taken in April 1920 by Aerofilms, this early aerial view provides a unique perspective of these magnificent chalk stacks rising majestically out of the sea. The Needles Lighthouse, standing tall since its construction in 1859, serves as the grand finale to this breathtaking natural formation. The image captures the sheer beauty and ruggedness of the coastline, with waves crashing against the base of these towering rock formations. The contrast between the white chalk cliffs and deep blue sea creates an awe-inspiring sight that is both dramatic and serene. The presence of the lighthouse adds an element of maritime history to this picturesque scene. Standing resolute amidst nature's forces, it has guided countless ships safely through treacherous waters over many decades. Aerofilms' expertly captured photograph not only immortalizes this remarkable landscape but also offers us a glimpse into a bygone era. It allows us to appreciate how little has changed over time when it comes to nature's enduring beauty. This stunning print from Historic England reminds us why The Needles are such an important part of our cultural heritage. It invites viewers to marvel at their timeless allure and contemplate their significance in shaping both land and seafaring history.
