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
In this photo print, we are presented with a breathtaking view of the iconic Christ the Redeemer statue perched atop Corcovado mountain in Rio de Janeiro. The image captures the serene beauty of this world-famous landmark just moments before an important global event - Earth Hour. On March 28,2009, as dusk begins to settle over Rio de Janeiro, more than 80 countries have pledged their participation in Earth Hour. This symbolic initiative aims to raise awareness about climate change and the urgent need to address rising greenhouse gas emissions. As part of this movement, homes, office towers, and landmarks around the world will unite by switching off their lights from 8:30 pm local time. The photograph showcases not only the grandeur of Christ the Redeemer but also highlights its significance within our changing environment. Against a backdrop of fading daylight and encroaching darkness, this powerful symbol stands tall as a reminder that collective action is crucial for preserving our planet's future. Photographed by Sergio Moraes for Reuters Images, this image encapsulates both Brazil's stunning cityscape and its commitment towards environmental consciousness. It serves as a poignant reminder that even monumental structures can play a role in raising awareness about pressing global issues such as climate change. As we gaze upon this extraordinary sight captured on film, let us be inspired to take action ourselves - for it is through small individual efforts that we can collectively make a significant impact on our shared home.
