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 the iconic artwork "HOGARTH: BEER STREET. Beer Street and Gin Lane". The steel engraving, created around 1860 by an artist named William Hogarth, depicts a scene from the bustling streets of 18th century England. With intricate details and masterful strokes, Hogarth skillfully captures the essence of daily life in this era. The image portrays a street filled with people from all walks of life, their actions reflecting the prevalent alcohol culture of that time. Amidst dilapidated slums and crowded alleys, individuals can be seen indulging in excessive drinking, symbolizing the rampant alcoholism prevalent during this period. The central focus lies on a man holding a stein while appearing heavily intoxicated – representing one among many victims caught in the grip of addiction. Hogarth's satirical approach sheds light on society's struggles with alcohol abuse and its detrimental effects on both individuals and communities as a whole. Through his artistry, he aims to provoke contemplation about societal issues rather than merely providing aesthetic pleasure. This print serves as a reminder of our history and how it continues to shape our present-day understanding of addiction and its consequences. It is not only an artistic masterpiece but also an important reflection on human behavior within specific cultural contexts.
