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 satirical American cartoon from 1886 by Joseph Keppler, mocking the renowned German statesman Otto von Bismarck. In the image, Bismarck is depicted as an Angel of Peace in the Balkans, following his role as an honest broker at the Congress of Berlin in 1878. This congress marked the end of the Russo-Turkish War but failed to quell high tensions in the region. Bismarck's portrayal as an angelic figure with pacifist intentions serves as a biting commentary on his political acts during this time. Known for his iron-fisted leadership and cunning diplomacy, he was often referred to as "The Iron Chancellor". However, this cartoon suggests that his efforts to broker peace were met with skepticism and perhaps even derision. The juxtaposition between Bismarck's reputation and his depiction in this artwork highlights both admiration and criticism towards him. The artist cleverly uses satire to question whether Bismarck's actions truly brought about lasting peace or simply perpetuated existing conflicts. As we delve into history through this thought-provoking image, it reminds us that even influential figures like Otto von Bismarck are not immune to scrutiny and parody.
