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.

Medusa, 1903 - A Captivating Glimpse into Mythological Symbolism
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This mesmerizing print captures the essence of "Medusa" a remarkable painting by Vasilii (Wilhelm) Alexandrovich Kotarbinsky in 1903. The artist's profound fascination with Greek mythology is evident in this masterpiece, which now resides in a private collection. Kotarbinsky skillfully portrays Medusa, one of the three Gorgon sisters from ancient Greek lore. With her serpent-like hair and piercing gaze that turns any onlooker to stone, Medusa embodies both beauty and terror. This oil on canvas artwork showcases the artist's exceptional talent for capturing intricate details and conveying emotions through brushstrokes. The painting draws inspiration from Ovid's epic poem "Metamorphoses" specifically the tale of Perseus and Andromeda. It alludes to the dramatic rescue mission where Perseus slays Medusa to save Andromeda from a sea monster. Through his allegorical representation, Kotarbinsky explores themes such as power, vulnerability, and heroism. The rich symbolism embedded within this piece invites viewers to delve deeper into classical literature while contemplating their own struggles against adversity. As we admire this fine art image today, we are reminded of Kotarbinsky's extraordinary ability to bring mythical narratives to life on canvas. His legacy endures through works like "Medusa" leaving an indelible mark on Polish art history
