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. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the breathtaking ascent of Mt. Blanc, as climbers navigate their way across the treacherous Bossons Glacier in the French Alps. Taken in 1901 by Underwood & Underwood, pioneers of stereoscopic photography, this image showcases both the majestic beauty and formidable challenges presented by these towering peaks. In the distance, we catch a glimpse of Grands Mulets, a prominent landmark that serves as a testament to human perseverance against nature's might. The monochrome tones add an air of timelessness to this remarkable scene, transporting us back to a bygone era when mountain climbing was still in its infancy. The men depicted here embody courage and determination as they conquer one of nature's most formidable obstacles. Their silhouettes against the snowy backdrop evoke a sense of awe-inspiring scale and highlight their insignificance amidst such grandeur. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded not only of man's desire for conquest but also his harmonious relationship with nature. The weathered faces tell stories untold – tales of triumphs and tribulations etched into every wrinkle. This stunning piece from The Print Collector collection is more than just an image; it is an invitation to explore our own limits and embrace life's challenges head-on. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern world, where technology has made many things seemingly easier, there are still mountains waiting to be climbed – both literally and metaphorically.
