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
This print captures a moment of intense bravery and skill in the world of Spanish bullfighting. In this 1878 wood engraving titled "A Spanish Banderillero placing the Banderillas whilst Seated in a Chair" artist Noel Eugene Sotain beautifully depicts a banderillero executing his daring maneuver while seated on a chair. The banderillero, dressed in traditional attire, demonstrates incredible courage as he places the banderillas - colorful decorated barbed sticks - into the charging bull. The tension is palpable as both man and beast engage in this dangerous dance within the bullring. Sotain's illustration comes from El Mundo en la Mano or The World in Your Hands, published during that time period. This artwork showcases not only the physical strength required for such an act but also highlights the deep cultural significance of bullfighting as a sport and form of entertainment. The image transports us to Spain, where horse-mounted toreros, matadors, and brave bulls captivate audiences with their displays of courage and danger. It reminds us of the rich history behind this ancient tradition that continues to divide opinions today. This striking print serves as a testament to human bravery amidst perilous circumstances while honoring Spain's vibrant heritage. Its timeless beauty invites viewers to reflect upon our complex relationship with tradition, sport, and artistry.
