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 engraving, titled "Virgilius" takes us back to ancient Rome and introduces us to the renowned poet Publius Virgilius Maro. Created in 1821 by Robert Graves, this frontispiece print captures the essence of a literary genius from the Augustan period. In this portrait, Virgil's profile is beautifully depicted, showcasing his noble features and intellectual aura. The artist skillfully portrays him wearing a traditional Roman toga, symbolizing his status as an esteemed figure in society. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every line etched with precision brings out the depth of character within Virgil's face. It is as if we can almost hear his words echoing through time, resonating with wisdom and poetic brilliance. As one of Rome's most celebrated poets, Virgil left an indelible mark on literature with his epic works such as "The Aeneid". This frontispiece serves as a testament to his enduring legacy and influence on future generations of writers. Displayed against a neutral background, this print allows us to focus solely on Virgil himself. With its timeless appeal and historical significance, it serves as a reminder that great art transcends time and continues to inspire even centuries later. This exquisite piece from Fine Art Finder invites us into the world of ancient Rome while paying homage to one of its greatest literary minds.
