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.

1. Title: Ancient Apollonia Ruins - Bouleuterion, Fier Region, Albania This evocative photograph captures the majestic ruins of the Bouleuterion, a historic building in Apollonia, Albania. Dating back to the 2nd century, this ancient structure is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this region. Apollonia, also known as Apollonia in Illyria, was an ancient Greek city located in the Fier Region of Albania. The city was established in the 6th century BC and flourished during the Hellenistic period, with influences from both Greece and Rome. The Bouleuterion, which translates to "council house," was the center of political and administrative activity in ancient Apollonia. The building's impressive architecture is evident in the intricately carved architrave and the well-preserved columns. The columns, each adorned with intricate capitals, stand tall against the backdrop of the rugged Albanian landscape. The Hellenistic period, which spanned from the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC to the emergence of the Roman Republic in 27 BC, was a time of significant cultural and artistic development. The ruins of Apollonia, and the Bouleuterion in particular, offer a glimpse into this age of ancient history. The age-old stones bear witness to the artistic and architectural achievements of the Greeks and Romans, and serve as a reminder of the enduring influence of their cultures. As you gaze upon this photograph, imagine the bustling marketplaces, lively debates, and important decisions that once took place within the walls of this ancient council house. The ruins of Apollonia and the Bouleuterion stand as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Albania and the wider Mediterranean world.
