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 captivating print showcases the intense and powerful painting of Cato of Utica, a prominent figure in ancient history. Painted by Luca Giordano, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 127x100 cm and is housed at the Musee des Beaux-Arts Andre Malraux in Le Havre, France. Cato of Utica was a stoic philosopher and politician who lived from 95-46 BC. The painting depicts him during a pivotal moment in his life when he faced defeat at the hands of Julius Caesar in the Battle of Thapsus. Despite being defeated, Cato's unwavering commitment to his principles led him to make the ultimate sacrifice. In this striking portrait, Cato is portrayed with a long beard and piercing gaze that exudes strength and determination. Holding a dagger stained with blood, it becomes evident that he has chosen to end his own life rather than succumb to Caesar's rule. Giordano skillfully captures the essence of Cato's stoicism through intricate details such as the expression on his face and the flowing drapery around him. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder of human resilience and unwavering conviction even in times of great adversity. As we contemplate this profound image, we are reminded not only of Cato's historical significance but also how art can immortalize moments that shape our understanding of humanity throughout time.
