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
In this photo print, we witness the audacious Baron Munchausen fearlessly hurling his silver hatchet towards a pack of menacing bears. Taken from Rudolf Erich Raspe's renowned novel "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" published around 1886, this vibrant lithograph by Alphonse Adolphe Bichard transports us into a world of thrilling escapades and daring exploits. As the German aristocrat stands tall amidst the dense jungle, his eyes gleam with determination while facing these growling creatures. The bears' ferocious expressions reveal their anger and hunger, making it clear that only true bravery can prevail in such a perilous encounter. Undeterred by their intimidating presence, Baron Munchausen embodies heroism as he launches his weapon with unwavering resolve. This illustration not only captures an exhilarating moment but also pays homage to the legendary tales inspired by Baron Friedrich von Munchausen himself. Known for his extravagant stories filled with fantastical adventures, he has become synonymous with machismo and bravado. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the timeless allure of heroic figures who face danger head-on without faltering. With its vivid colors and attention to detail, this print brings to life an iconic scene from literature that continues to captivate audiences across generations. It serves as a testament to both the enduring power of storytelling and our fascination with tales that transport us beyond reality's confines into realms where courage reigns supreme.
