Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a profound moment in history, depicting Anicius Manlius Severinus Boethius seeking counsel from Dame Philosophy. The image is based on a 15th-century miniature found in the manuscript "Consolation of Boethius" which beautifully illustrates the timeless wisdom and guidance offered by philosophy. Boethius, a Roman philosopher who lived from 480 to 524 or 525 AD, was known for his influential works that bridged classical philosophy with Christian thought. In this allegorical scene, he turns to Dame Philosophy as his trusted advisor during a challenging period in his life. The medieval setting adds an air of mystique and reverence to the illustration. It reminds us of the significant role played by literature and science during the Middle Ages, shaping intellectual pursuits and inspiring generations to come. Captured by Ken Welsh and published in London in 1878 as part of Paul Lacroix's book "Science And Literature In The Middle Ages" this print not only showcases artistic beauty but also serves as a reminder of our enduring quest for knowledge and understanding. Whether displayed in homes or educational institutions, it invites contemplation on the power of philosophy to guide us through life's trials and tribulations.
