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 a detailed illustration from "The Military Campaigns of Suleyman I" depicting the dramatic events of The Siege of Belgrade in 1521. Created by Lokman and published in 1588, this vellum artwork is now housed at the Topkapi Palace Museum in Istanbul, Turkey. In this particular detail, we are transported back to the 16th century as we witness the intensity and chaos of war. The cityscape of Belgrade is beautifully rendered with its towering walls and fortified defenses. As Turkish forces led by Suleyman I, also known as Suleiman the Magnificent, lay siege to this Eastern European city, Hungarian defenders valiantly resist their attack. The scene comes alive with action as cannons fire from both sides, filling the air with smoke and noise. The besieged tower stands tall amidst crumbling structures while soldiers engage in fierce combat on every corner. This manuscript illustration captures not only a historical event but also reveals intricate details that provide insight into medieval warfare tactics. As an artifact from the Ottoman Empire's military history, this image serves as a testament to Suleiman's ambition for expansion and his prowess as a leader. It reminds us of the conflicts that shaped our world centuries ago and invites us to reflect on how these events continue to influence our present-day geopolitical landscape.
