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 print captures the dramatic moment of the sinking of the German ships Scharnhorst and Gneisenau during the Battle of the Falkland Islands in December 1914. The image shows thick plumes of smoke rising from the war-torn vessels as they slowly descend into the icy waters of the South Atlantic Ocean.
The Battle of the Falkland Islands was a pivotal event in World War I, where British forces successfully intercepted and defeated a German naval squadron that had been wreaking havoc on Allied shipping routes. The sinking of these two formidable German ships marked a significant turning point in the war at sea, solidifying Britain's dominance over its maritime adversaries.
The sheer scale and devastation depicted in this photograph serve as a stark reminder of the brutal realities faced by sailors on both sides during this tumultuous period in history. The chaos and destruction captured here are palpable, evoking a sense of awe and reverence for those who fought valiantly amidst such perilous conditions.
As we gaze upon this haunting image, we are reminded not only of the sacrifices made by those who served aboard these doomed vessels but also of the enduring legacy left behind by their heroic actions. This print is a poignant testament to an important chapter in world history that should never be forgotten.
