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. 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 showcases a stunning carpet from Egypt during the Mamluk period, dating back to the early 16th century. Created by an unknown artist, this exquisite piece of art is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago. The carpet's intricate design and vibrant colors are a testament to the rich heritage and artistic prowess of ancient Egyptian culture. The geometric patterns adorning this textile masterpiece demonstrate exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. Woven with wool using a plain weave technique, it features supplementary wrapping wefts that form cut pile through Persian Sehna knots. This meticulous weaving process adds depth and texture to the rug, making it not only visually striking but also incredibly soft to touch. The combination of decorative elements draws inspiration from both Persian and Egyptian traditions, resulting in a unique fusion that reflects the cultural exchange prevalent during this historical period. As you gaze upon this remarkable artwork, you can almost feel transported back in time, immersing yourself in the grandeur of Mamluk-era Egypt. This photograph offers us a glimpse into history—a tangible link connecting us with past civilizations and their extraordinary artistic legacy. It serves as a reminder of our shared human heritage and invites contemplation on how art continues to transcend time and captivate our imaginations across generations.
