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 powerful image captures a scene of resilience and determination amidst the chaos of war. In the midst of the devastating siege of Leningrad, where bombs were landing about every 3 minutes, a lone man sits in the library engrossed in a book. The sign above him reads "Please keep quiet", a stark reminder of the constant danger that surrounds them.
Despite the destruction happening outside, this man chooses to seek solace within the walls of knowledge and literature. His commitment to continue reading despite the imminent threat speaks volumes about his courage and unwavering spirit.
The Leningrad Library stands as a symbol of hope in the face of adversity, where civilians refused to let fear dictate their actions. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the human capacity for resilience and strength during times of great turmoil.
As we reflect on this historical moment captured through this lens, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our history and honoring those who have endured unimaginable hardships. It is through images like these that we can truly appreciate the sacrifices made by individuals during times of war and conflict.
