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 haunting aftermath of an attack on a school in Dapchi, Nigeria. The image reveals an empty classroom, once filled with eager students seeking knowledge but now abandoned and destroyed. The room is in disarray, with damaged walls and a dirty floor reflecting the chaos that unfolded here. The creative use of lighting highlights the fan implement hanging from the ceiling, motionless as if frozen in time. Through a broken window, faint rays of sunlight seep into the room, casting shadows on a solitary school desk left untouched amidst the ruins. The absence of people intensifies the feeling of fear and stress that must have consumed this space during Boko Haram's assault. It serves as a chilling reminder of how armed conflicts can disrupt innocent lives and shatter educational institutions. Afolabi Sotunde's poignant composition captures not only physical destruction but also symbolizes hopelessness and despair. This photograph stands as evidence to remind us all of the urgent need for peace and security in regions plagued by violence.
