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 captures a dramatic battle scene from Homer's Iliad, believed to have been created around 300 BC. The Iliad is an extraordinary epic poem that recounts the final year of the legendary war between the Ancient Greeks and Troy, which took place in the 12th or 13th century BC. Housed in the Biblioteca Ambrosiana in Milan, this artwork showcases a pivotal moment in ancient warfare. In vivid color and intricate detail, we witness courageous warriors engaged in fierce combat. Clad in armor and armed with weapons such as swords and spears, these soldiers epitomize valor on the battlefield. Shields are raised high to protect against enemy strikes while bodies intertwine amidst chaos and destruction. The Iliad is not only a tale of war but also a masterpiece of literature that delves into themes of heroism, honor, fate, and mortality. It has captivated readers for centuries with its poetic storytelling and rich mythology rooted in Greek culture. This remarkable print serves as a testament to both ancient Greece's military prowess and their profound artistic achievements. It transports us back to an era where legends were born on blood-soaked fields—a visual reminder of humanity's eternal fascination with conflict and our ceaseless pursuit of glory through warfare.
