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.

The Saving of Captain Boycott's Crops - A Symbolic Triumph of Unity and Protection
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This sepia-toned photo print, titled "The Saving of Captain Boycott's Crops" captures a pivotal moment in Irish history during the 1880s. The illustration, originally engraved by William Barnes Wollen and now part of a private collection, depicts an agricultural scene that goes beyond its surface beauty. At the center of this image is Captain Charles Boycott, a land agent who dared to oppose the Irish Land League. His brave stance led to his ostracization from society. However, what followed was an extraordinary display of solidarity and resilience. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness Orangemen volunteers coming together with horse-drawn carts to harvest Lord Erne's crops under police protection from the Royal Irish Constabulary. This powerful visual narrative speaks volumes about political tensions and social dynamics prevalent during that era. The presence of hay bales and straw scattered across the landscape symbolizes not only abundance but also resistance against oppression. It serves as a reminder that even in times of adversity, unity can prevail over division. This historical photograph encapsulates both the struggles faced by ordinary people and their unwavering determination to protect their rights. It stands as a testament to Ireland's rich heritage and its ongoing fight for justice. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us reflect on how far we have come while acknowledging that there is
