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.

Estimated Product Size is 59.4cm x 42cm (23.4" x 16.5")

These are individually made so all sizes are approximate

Artwork printed orientated as per the preview above, with landscape (horizontal) orientation to match the source image.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming photo, a hippopotamus named Mafalda tenderly opens its mouth to nurse its adorable seven-day-old baby in the Buenos Aires Zoo. The bond between mother and child is beautifully captured as they share an intimate moment of nourishment and connection. The zoo veterinarians, excited about the arrival of this precious new addition to their hippo family, have decided to let the public participate in naming the 30-kilogram baby through a contest. As visitors flock to witness this incredible sight, they are left guessing whether it's a boy or girl since no gender has been identified yet. This image showcases not only the natural instincts of these magnificent creatures but also highlights the importance of conservation efforts in preserving endangered species like hippos. It serves as a reminder that zoos play a crucial role in raising awareness about wildlife protection and providing safe environments for animals to thrive. Photographer Enrique Marcarian captures this enchanting moment with precision and artistry, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the tenderness shared between mother and calf. With no rights clearances or permissions required for this image, it stands as a testament to nature's wonders and our responsibility towards safeguarding them for generations to come.
