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 evocative portrait captures the intense and passionate gaze of Hector Berlioz (1803-1869), a major figure in the world of Romantic music and a pivotal influence on the development of the symphonic form in France. Born on March 11, 1803, in La Côte-Saint-André, Berlioz was a prolific composer whose innovative works defied the conventions of his time. Berlioz's musical career began in earnest in the late 1820s, and he quickly gained recognition for his unique compositional style. His groundbreaking works, such as "Symphonie fantastique" (1830) and "Romeo et Juliette" (1839), showcased his mastery of orchestration and his ability to evoke powerful emotions through music. Despite his artistic brilliance, Berlioz faced numerous challenges throughout his career. His unconventional ideas and refusal to compromise his artistic vision often put him at odds with the musical establishment. However, he remained committed to his craft and continued to compose and conduct, leaving behind a rich and enduring legacy. This portrait, taken in the later years of Berlioz's life, captures the intensity and passion that fueled his music. The composer's intense gaze and furrowed brow suggest a deep concentration, as if he is lost in thought, composing a new masterpiece. The historical significance of Berlioz's contributions to music is evident in this powerful and evocative image. Berlioz passed away on March 8, 1869, leaving behind a body of work that continues to inspire and captivate audiences around the world. His influence on the development of the symphonic form and his commitment to artistic innovation make him a true giant of Romantic music.
