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
In this vintage illustration, we are transported back to the enchanting tale of the Pied Piper of Hamelin. The scene depicts a mother desperately shielding her precious baby from the menacing rats that have infiltrated their home. Created by the talented artist Kate Greenaway in 1888, this print beautifully captures both the innocence and vulnerability of youth. The retro styling adds an extra layer of charm to this artwork, evoking a sense of nostalgia for simpler times. The muted color palette lends a timeless quality to the image, allowing us to immerse ourselves in its rich storytelling. As our eyes wander across the composition, we cannot help but be drawn towards the vats filled with cheese - now devoured by these cunning rodents. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and danger, there is always something valuable at stake. What truly stands out in this piece is how it highlights female strength and resilience. The mother's fierce determination radiates through her protective stance, showcasing her unwavering love for her child. This portrayal challenges traditional gender roles and empowers women as capable defenders against any threat that may come their way. Duncan1890's careful preservation and presentation of this remarkable artwork allows us to relish in its historical significance while appreciating its enduring beauty.
