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 takes us back to the serene beauty of River Barle in Somerset, captured by the talented photographer John Gay in 1956. The image showcases a stone bridge with a dark arch, providing shelter for those passing beneath it. As we gaze through this architectural marvel, our eyes are drawn along the calm stretch of river that stretches out before us. In this tranquil scene, nature's wonders unfold as trees sway gently on the riverbank while low farm buildings dotting the landscape add a touch of rustic charm. Beyond them lie rolling hills that seem to merge seamlessly with the horizon. It is as if time stands still within this idyllic setting. John Gay's masterful composition allows us to immerse ourselves in this peaceful moment frozen in time. The play between light and shadow adds depth and mystery to the photograph, enhancing its ethereal quality. Through his lens, Gay captures not just an ordinary view but also evokes emotions of tranquility and serenity. This remarkable snapshot reminds us of nature's ability to soothe our souls and transport us away from life's hustle and bustle. As we admire this stunning piece of artistry by John Gay, we are reminded once again why historic landmarks like these deserve preservation – they serve as windows into our past while offering solace amidst today's fast-paced world.
