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 a significant moment in history, depicting "The sibyl of Tiburtis announcing to Augustus the coming of Jesus Christ". The image showcases the meeting between Caesar Augustus, the renowned Roman Emperor, and a mysterious prophetess known as the sibyl. Painted with vibrant colors and intricate details, this 19th-century lithograph brings to life an ancient tale. According to legend, the sibyl was believed to possess divine knowledge and foresight. In this scene, she stands before Augustus, her face radiant with conviction as she delivers a prophecy that would shape the course of Christianity forever. With her hand raised towards heaven and eyes filled with intensity, it is clear that she carries an important message. As we gaze upon this masterpiece from Science and Literature in the Middle Ages by Paul Lacroix published in London in 1878, we are transported back in time. The composition evokes both awe and curiosity about what words were exchanged between these two figures. This artwork not only highlights historical significance but also explores themes of faith and destiny. It serves as a reminder that even amidst pagan beliefs prevalent during those times; there were whispers of something greater on the horizon - the arrival of Jesus Christ himself. Intriguingly enigmatic yet undeniably powerful, this print invites us to ponder upon prophecies fulfilled while marveling at how art can beautifully capture moments that transcend time itself.
