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 a remarkable household lararium found in the House of the Vetti, Pompeii. The image, captured by Pierre Gusman, takes us back to ancient Roman times and offers a glimpse into the daily rituals and beliefs of its inhabitants. The focal point of this artwork is a serpent gracefully positioned beneath two household gods known as Lars. These divine figures stand on either side of a guardian Genius loci, exuding an aura of protection and guidance over the household. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these ancient deities to life, evoking a sense of awe and reverence. The composition represents the Fourth Pompeian Style with its polychrome moulding in the Third Style below. It exemplifies Roman architecture at its finest, showcasing exquisite mural frescoes that adorned the walls of this magnificent house. As we delve deeper into this image, we are transported to another era where interior design was not merely about aesthetics but also served as an expression of religious devotion. This photograph serves as a testament to human creativity and spirituality throughout history. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this piece through their fine art collection.
