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 evocative photograph captures the image of an Austrian Kaiserjäger soldier from the Tyrolean regiment during the early days of the First World War. Dated 1914, the soldier is seen donning the distinctive Edelweiss flower in his cap, a symbol of Austrian Alpine heritage and pride. The Kaiserjäger, or Emperor Hunters, were elite mountain infantry units of the Austro-Hungarian Army, renowned for their expertise in mountain warfare. The soldier is dressed in his full uniform, complete with a heavy backpack, rifle slung over his shoulder, and a traditional Tyrolean crest emblazoned on his chest. The eagle and shield crest, a common motif in Austrian military insignia, adds an air of authority and tradition to the image. The photograph offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of life for these soldiers in the rugged terrain of the Alps. The mountains, a natural barrier and a source of both beauty and challenge, loom in the background, underscoring the importance of the soldiers' skills and determination. The First World War, also known as the Great War, marked a turning point in history, with devastating consequences for Europe and the world. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian Army, including the Kaiserjäger, during those tumultuous times. The Edelweiss flower, a symbol of resilience and endurance, adds a poignant touch to the image, reflecting the strength and courage of these men in the face of adversity.
