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 masterpiece "St. Anthony of Padua Preaching to the Fish" by Victor Wolfvoet, a Flemish artist from the 17th century. Painted on copper, this oil painting measures 48.5x64.5 cm and is currently housed in the Musee des Beaux-Arts in Dunkirk, France. The artwork depicts an extraordinary scene where St. Anthony of Padua, a renowned Franciscan monk, stands before a group of fish as he delivers his sermon. Dressed in his humble habit, St. Anthony's words seem to captivate not only humans but also these aquatic creatures who gather attentively around him. Surrounding the saint are ethereal beings - angels, cherubs, and seraphim - adding an otherworldly aura to this mystical encounter between man and nature. Their presence emphasizes the divine connection that transcends earthly boundaries. St. Anthony of Padua is known for his eloquence and wisdom as well as being declared a Doctor of the Church by Pope Pius XII in 1946. This painting beautifully captures his ability to communicate with all living beings through faith and compassion. Wolfvoet's attention to detail brings every element to life; from the intricate folds of St. Anthony's robe to each individual scale on the fish swimming nearby. This remarkable piece serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos or indifference, there is always hope for understanding and unity among all creatures under God's watchful eye
