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 pivotal moment from Shakespeare's play, "Richard III". In Act IV, scene 4, King Richard III finds himself confronted by Queen Elizabeth regarding the mysterious disappearance of her sons. The engraving, created by Sir John Gilbert for an English edition in 1881, beautifully depicts this intense encounter. The image showcases the dramatic tension between the characters as they stand face to face. Queen Elizabeth exudes strength and determination while demanding answers from the cunning king. Her royal attire emphasizes her status and authority, contrasting with Richard's regal but sinister presence. The setting is reminiscent of an Elizabethan theater stage, transporting us back to a time when Shakespeare's plays were performed live. The detailed illustration brings to life the rich historical context surrounding these events - the Tower of London looms in the background as a symbol of power and intrigue. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of literature-inspired art, we are reminded of Shakespeare's enduring legacy and his ability to capture complex human emotions through his words. This print serves as a testament to both Sir John Gilbert's artistic talent and Shakespeare's timeless storytelling prowess.
