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
1. Title: "Remembrance and History: Hooge Crater CWGC Cemetery and Museum, Ypres, Belgium" This evocative photograph captures the solemn beauty of Hooge Crater Commonweath War Graves Commission (CWGC) Cemetery, located in the historic town of Ieper, or Ypres, in western Belgium. Established in 1920, the cemetery is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War. The image showcases the meticulously maintained rows of white crosses and headstones, each inscribed with the name, rank, regiment, and date of death of a fallen soldier. The crater in the background, a result of intense artillery bombardment during the Battle of Ypres in 1915, serves as a haunting testament to the brutal realities of war. Adjacent to the cemetery stands the Hooge Crater Museum, a small but significant institution dedicated to preserving the history of the First World War in this area. The museum offers visitors a unique insight into the experiences of soldiers who fought in the Ypres Salient, providing a valuable context for the graves in the cemetery. The photograph, taken in 2016, captures the peaceful and reflective atmosphere that envelops the site, which continues to draw thousands of visitors each year. The combination of the Hooge Crater CWGC Cemetery and Museum serves as a poignant reminder of the past, a tribute to the fallen soldiers, and a testament to the enduring power of remembrance. The First World War, also known as the Great War, lasted from 1914 to 1918, and the Battle of Ypres was one of the most significant battles fought during this conflict. The town of Ypres, located in the province of West Flanders in Belgium, was a strategic point in the war and saw intense fighting throughout the conflict. The Commonwealth War Graves Commission was established in 1917 to mark the graves of the British and Empire forces who died in the First World War.
