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
Belfort Conspiracy 1: A Moment of Defiance against the Restored Bourbon Monarchy (1822, Paris) This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in French history, as officers of the Belfort regiment, stationed in Paris, conspire to overthrow the recently restored Bourbon monarchy. The year was 1822, and the memory of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars still lingered in the air. The Belfort regiment, known for its loyalty to the ideals of the Revolution, had long harbored discontent towards the Bourbon monarchy. In the shadows of Paris, these officers met clandestinely to plan their rebellion, their faces etched with determination and resolve. However, their plans were short-lived. The authorities soon discovered the conspiracy, and a wave of arrests swept through the ranks of the Belfort regiment. The leaders, including General Lamarque and Colonel Fabre, were quickly apprehended and brought before the courts. This photograph, taken from the extensive archives of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in French history. The Belfort Conspiracy, though ultimately unsuccessful, marked a significant challenge to the Bourbon monarchy and highlighted the deep-seated tensions that continued to simmer in post-Napoleonic France. As we examine this image, we are transported back in time, witnessing the courage and defiance of these officers as they sought to change the course of history. The events of January 1822 serve as a reminder of the complex and tumultuous political landscape of 19th-century France, and the enduring power of the human spirit in the face of adversity.
