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.

Painted by Thomas Baines in oil on canvas, this artwork showcases the traditional process of sugar production in a village called Katipo. The scene depicts African women engaged in the meticulous craft of creating panellas or pots used for containing sugar. Surrounding them are charming thatched huts and other rustic buildings that make up the village's landscape. The painting offers a glimpse into the exploration and discovery era as Baines accompanied Dr David Livingstone on an expedition along the Zambezi river. The inscription on the reverse side of the canvas provides valuable information about this particular moment captured by Baines.
