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 Defence of Malta - A Historic Battle for Faith and Freedom
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This chromolitho print depicts the intense battle that took place in 1565, known as "The Defence of Malta" led by Jean Parisot de Valette, Grand Master of the Order of Malta. In this late 19th or early 20th-century French educational card, we witness a pivotal moment in history where Christian knights valiantly defended their island against Ottoman invaders. The scene showcases the sheer determination and bravery exhibited by both sides. The towering walls of Malta's fortifications serve as a formidable defense against the onslaught of Turkish forces. Ladders lean precariously against these ancient battlements as Muslim warriors clash with Christian knights. Amidst the chaos, one can sense the fervor and conviction on each soldier's face. This battle was not merely about territorial conquest; it symbolized a fight for religious freedom and preservation of Christian values. Jean Parisot de Valette emerges as an indomitable figure at the forefront, leading his men fearlessly into combat. His strategic prowess and unwavering faith inspire those around him to stand firm in their resolve. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who fought to defend their beliefs. It serves as a testament to human resilience in times of conflict and highlights how history shapes our present-day understanding. Through this artwork, we are transported back to an era when nations clashed over matters deeply rooted in religion—a reminder that even amidst turmoil, humanity has always sought solace within its faiths.
