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.

The Czar's Haunting Nightmare - A Glimpse into the Russian Defeat
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this woodcut print by renowned artist Kobayashi Kiyochika, created in 1904 or 1905, we witness a powerful and symbolic representation of the tumultuous Russo-Japanese War. The print titled "The Czar sees his forces returning" offers a haunting glimpse into the psyche of Nicholas II, the last Emperor of Russia. As dawn breaks over an eerie landscape, Nicholas II awakens from a fitful sleep to confront his worst fears. His troubled slumber has conjured up a vivid nightmare that unfolds before him with chilling clarity. In this nightmarish vision, he witnesses his once-mighty Russian forces returning from battle with Japan in utter disarray. Kiyochika masterfully captures the devastation and despair etched on the faces of these battered soldiers as they trudge back home wounded and defeated. The color palette chosen by the artist adds to the somber atmosphere, emphasizing their suffering against a backdrop of desolation. This poignant artwork serves as both a historical document and an artistic reflection on war's futility. It highlights not only Russia's military setbacks but also exposes Nicholas II's inner turmoil as he grapples with his leadership role during this catastrophic conflict. Quint Lox brings attention to this significant piece from Liszt Collection, reminding us of its enduring relevance in understanding one chapter of world history through artistry and imagination.
