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.

In this masterpiece, we witness a powerful scene as American and French allies triumphantly stand together against their English counterparts.

With bayonets fixed and uniforms proudly displayed, both soldiers and generals exude determination and resilience. The Surrender of Yorktown marked a turning point in the war, leading to ultimate victory for America's fight for independence.
