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 captures the intensity and chaos of the infamous Charge of the Light Brigade during the Crimean War. Taken from Cassells Illustrated History of England, this engraving by an anonymous English artist from the 19th century offers a glimpse into one of history's most daring military maneuvers. The image showcases a pivotal moment in battle as soldiers on horseback, identified as members of the Scots Greys, charge forward with their sabres drawn. The thick smoke engulfs them, adding to the sense of danger and confusion on the battlefield. Horses gallop fiercely through what became known as "the valley of death" while Russian forces can be seen in distant confrontation. The composition is filled with action and movement, highlighting both bravery and sacrifice exhibited by these mounted troops. Their iconic busbys stand out against the backdrop, symbolizing their unwavering determination even amidst chaos. This historical artwork serves as a reminder of human resilience in times of war. It immortalizes a significant event that has become synonymous with courage despite its tragic outcome. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to that fateful day in Balaclava when brave men fought valiantly for their cause - forever etching their names into history books around the world.
