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 captures the Barents ship at Nova Zembla in 1598, showcasing a pivotal moment in Dutch history. The image portrays the vessel that belonged to Willem Barentsz, a renowned navigator, cartographer, and Arctic explorer of the 16th century. Known for his relentless pursuit of a Northeast passage, Barentsz embarked on three daring expeditions. However, it was during his third voyage that tragedy struck. The crew found themselves stranded on Novaya Zemlya, an island off the North coast of Russia. For nearly a year they battled harsh conditions and isolation until their eventual rescue. Sadly, Barentsz did not live to see this day as he perished while returning home in 1597. Gerrit de Veer meticulously documented these extraordinary voyages in his work titled "A True and Perfect Description of Three Voyages". Through this engraving by the Dutch School artist (name unknown), we are transported back to witness this remarkable chapter in exploration history. The intricate details depicted within the print showcase the ship's impressive rigging and sails as it braves treacherous Arctic waters. This artwork serves as a testament to both Barentsz's unwavering determination and mankind's enduring spirit of adventure. As we gaze upon this historic scene frozen in time, we are reminded of the courage exhibited by those who dared to explore uncharted territories and push beyond known boundaries – forever etching their names into our collective memory.
