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
Rani ki vav, or Ran-ki vav, is a magnificent stepwell located in the historic town of Patan, Gujarat, India. Once known as Anhilpur Patan, this city was the capital of Gujarat during the reign of King Siddharja Jaysingh, who was believed to have been founded by Vanraja Chavda. The stepwell, a richly sculptured monument, was constructed during the Solanki or Chalukya period, around 1050 AD. The stepwell is believed to have been built in memory of Bhimdev I, the eldest son of Mularaja, the founder of the Solanki dynasty of Anahilwada Pattan. However, it is generally assumed that it was completed by his widowed queen Udayamati and her successor Karandev I after Bhimdev's death. Rani ki vav is a stunning example of Indian architectural heritage, with intricately carved pillars and intricate stonework. The stepwell is not just a water reservoir but also a work of art, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of the region. The intricate carvings on the walls depict various scenes from Hindu mythology, including stories from the Mahabharata and the Ramayana. The stepwell is a popular tourist destination and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is a must-visit for anyone interested in history, architecture, or Indian culture. The stepwell's serene atmosphere and the peaceful surroundings make it an ideal place to unwind and reflect. This photograph captures the essence of Rani ki vav, with its intricate carvings, stunning architecture, and peaceful surroundings. It is a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of India and the beauty of its ancient monuments.
