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
The Captives (plaster) by Emile-Antoine Bourdelle is a powerful and thought-provoking print that captures the essence of human struggle and resilience. This maquette, created as a tribute to Adam Mickiewicz, the renowned Polish poet, writer, and patriot, holds deep historical significance. The sculpture depicts two prisoners bound in chains, symbolizing the oppression faced by Mickiewicz's people during their fight for freedom. The artist skillfully portrays their anguish and determination through intricate details carved into the plaster. Their faces reflect both pain and hope, reminding us of the indomitable spirit that resides within every captive soul. This artwork served as part of a monument dedicated to Mickiewicz erected in Paris in 1929. It stands as an enduring homage to his contributions towards Polish literature and national identity. The panels on its base depict scenes from his life and works, showcasing his profound impact on society. Bourdelle's creation not only pays tribute to Mickiewicz but also serves as a commemorative reminder of all those who have fought against injustice throughout history. Its presence evokes contemplation about the sacrifices made for freedom while inspiring viewers with its message of resilience. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of our shared humanity and the timeless struggles faced by individuals striving for liberty worldwide.
