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 by Paul Marsch transports us to the rugged and awe-inspiring landscape of Northumberland, where Dunstanburgh Castle stands proudly against a brooding overcast sky. The scene is set on a bouldered beach, with crashing waves adding an element of drama to the already atmospheric atmosphere.
Dunstanburgh Castle, a medieval ruin steeped in history, dominates the frame with its imposing tower and crumbling walls. It serves as a reminder of times long past when fortifications like these were essential for coastal defense. The castle's silhouette against the cloudy backdrop creates a striking contrast that adds to the overall sense of mystery and intrigue.
The surrounding landscape is equally breathtaking; cliffs rise majestically from the cold waters below while tides ebb and flow rhythmically along the shore. This juxtaposition between land and sea showcases nature's raw power and beauty.
Paul Marsch skillfully captures this moment in time, freezing it forever within his lens. His composition allows us to appreciate both the grandeur of Dunstanburgh Castle itself as well as its harmonious integration into its natural surroundings.
As we gaze upon this print from Historic England, we are transported back through centuries, imagining knights defending their fortress against invading forces or perhaps envisioning quieter moments when life within these stone walls was more peaceful.
In essence, this photograph encapsulates not only an iconic landmark but also evokes emotions tied to our collective human history. It serves as a powerful reminder that even ruins can hold immense beauty if we take the time to truly see them.
