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 showcases the remarkable Equestrian Monument of Sir John Hawkwood, a masterpiece created by Paolo Uccello in 1436. Originally painted as a fresco on the walls of the Duomo in Florence, Italy, this artwork has been transferred to canvas to preserve its beauty and historical significance. The monument pays tribute to Sir John Hawkwood, a renowned mercenary who led Florentine soldiers to victory in the battle of Cascina in 1364. The equestrian statue portrays him mounted on his noble steed, clad in impressive armor that reflects his status as a knight. The attention to detail is extraordinary - from the intricate design of his helmet and sword to the lifelike depiction of muscles and veins on both horse and rider. Restored by Lorenzo di Credi in 1524, this piece exemplifies Renaissance art with its meticulous use of perspective and trompe l'oeil techniques. The fictive illusion created by Uccello transports viewers back in time, allowing them to witness history through an artistic lens. Standing proudly atop a plinth within an ornate sarcophagus-like structure, Sir John Hawkwood's profile captures both strength and nobility. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insight into Italian art history during this early period. Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of Renaissance architecture, this image invites us to appreciate the skillful craftsmanship behind one of Florence's most treasured artworks.
