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.

KILRAIN VS. SULLIVAN, 1889 - A Legendary Battle Comes to an End
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from The Granger Collection, we are transported back to the scorching summer of 1889 in Richburg, Mississippi. The image captures the climactic moment when John L. Sullivan delivers a devastating knockout blow to his opponent Jake Kilrain in their historic bare-knuckle fight. The atmosphere is electric as the referee and a sea of spectators surround the ring, eagerly witnessing this monumental event unfold. This intense competition marks Sullivan's last foray into bare-knuckle fighting before transitioning to gloved boxing matches that would shape modern-day pugilism. John L. Sullivan himself stands tall as an American icon of late 19th-century boxing prowess. His triumph over Kilrain solidifies his reputation as one of the greatest fighters of his time and leaves an indelible mark on sports history. The clash between these two formidable boxers symbolizes more than just physical strength; it represents a cultural collision between Irish heritage and American grit in the South-Eastern United States during this era. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to Lawrence Kilburn's skillful artistry behind capturing such significant moments in time. As you gaze upon this piece from Granger Art on Demand, let yourself be transported back to that sweltering July day in 1889 when John L. Sullivan emerged victorious after seventy-five grueling rounds—a true testament to human endurance
