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
In this chromolithograph, we are transported back to ancient Rome as we witness the legendary King Numa Pompilius seeking counsel from the nymph Egeria. The image beautifully captures the essence of mythology, superstition, and royal authority. Numa Pompilius, depicted with regal poise and wisdom, turns to Egeria for guidance in a moment of great importance. As the second King of Rome, he understands the weight of his decisions and seeks divine intervention through this mystical encounter. The nymph Egeria appears ethereal and alluring as she imparts her otherworldly knowledge upon him. The artist skillfully portrays the scene within a cave setting, adding an air of mysticism to their meeting. This sacred space symbolizes both secrecy and enlightenment as Numa receives invaluable advice that will shape his reign. This artwork not only explores ancient Roman mythology but also delves into universal themes such as human nature's reliance on supernatural forces for guidance. It reminds us that even great rulers seek wisdom beyond their own understanding. With exceptional attention to detail and vibrant colors typical of chromolithographs from this era, this print is truly a visual masterpiece. Its historical significance combined with its artistic quality makes it a valuable addition to any collection or exhibition dedicated to exploring legends, myths, or ancient civilizations.
