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 pivotal moment in Russian history - "The Siege of Kazan, 1552". Dating back to the second half of the 16th century, this illuminated compiled chronicle found in the Collection of Russian National Library, St. Petersburg offers a glimpse into medieval Russia. In this intricate miniature artwork, we witness a man who embodies power and authority - a monarch from the Rurik dynasty. The anonymous artist skillfully depicts the ruler amidst an intense battle scene, showcasing his determination and leadership during one of Russia's most significant conflicts. The image transports us back to the time when Tsar Ivan IV, famously known as Ivan the Terrible or Ivan IV Vasilyevich, reigned over Muscovy. As part of his ambitious expansionist policies, he waged war against Kazan Khanate and its Crimean Tatar allies. This particular event marked a turning point in Russo-Kazan wars as it led to the fall of Kazan in 1552. Through meticulous manuscript illumination techniques using ink on paper, this fine art piece exemplifies old Russian artistry at its finest. It serves as both historical documentation and artistic expression that sheds light on Russia's rich cultural heritage. As we delve into this mesmerizing illustration from centuries past, we are reminded of how history shapes our present-day understanding and appreciation for medieval Russia's nobility, statesmen like Ivan IV and their relentless pursuit for power within an aristocratic society.
