Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. 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). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful lithograph captures the aftermath of the Battle of Gravelotte during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871. In the midst of destruction and chaos, Sisters of Mercy are depicted arriving on the battlefield to provide aid and comfort to the wounded soldiers. The scene is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war, as injured men lay scattered across the ground with limbs bandaged and expressions of pain etched on their faces.
The hand-colored print brings to life a moment in history when compassion and care were desperately needed amidst the brutality of conflict. The nuns' selfless dedication to tending to those in need serves as a beacon of hope in a time marked by suffering and loss.
As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of the physical toll that war takes on individuals, but also of the resilience and humanity that can shine through even in its darkest moments. It is a testament to the strength and kindness that can emerge from tragedy, offering us a glimpse into both the horrors and glimmers of light that define our shared history.
