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: "The Enigmatic Ruins of St. Stephen Church within Rozafa Castle, Shkodra, Albania" The hauntingly beautiful ruins of St. Stephen Church, nestled within the historic Rozafa Castle in Shkodra, Albania, tell a tale of a rich and complex history that intertwines religion, architecture, and the passage of time. The church, also known as the Church of Saint Stephen Protomartyr or Et'hem Bey Mosque, stands as a testament to the diverse cultural influences that have shaped this ancient city. The exterior of the church, with its intricate stonework and arched facade, is a marvel of architectural artistry. The once grand edifice, now partially in ruins, casts long shadows over the cobblestone streets of Shkodra, adding an air of mystery and intrigue. The church's stone walls, weathered by the elements, bear the marks of a past filled with both religious fervor and political turmoil. The St. Stephen Church holds significant historical importance, as it has served various religious purposes throughout its existence. Originally built as a Catholic church in the 13th century, it was later converted into a mosque during the Ottoman rule in the 16th century. The church was then transformed into a barracks during the Italian occupation in the early 20th century. Today, it stands as a protected historical monument, a reminder of the diverse religious and cultural heritage of Albania. The Rozafa Castle, which envelopes the church, is another architectural gem in Shkodra. Dating back to the Illyrian and Roman periods, the castle has undergone numerous transformations throughout history. Its strategic location on a hill overlooking the Drin River has made it an essential fortification for various rulers and empires. The ruins of St. Stephen Church within Rozafa Castle offer a glimpse into the intricate tapestry of Albania's history, inviting visitors to explore the layers of stories hidden within its ancient walls.
