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.

Cimabue's Maesta: A Masterpiece of Florentine Art from the 13th Century This exquisite image showcases Cimabue's (1240-1302) masterpiece, The Maesta, painted around 1280. The painting is a testament to Cimabue's innovative artistic vision and his significant impact on the development of European art. Cimabue, a Florentine painter and creator of mosaics, was a pioneer in the use of linear perspective and the naturalistic representation of figures. The Maesta exemplifies these techniques, as well as his ability to convey a profound sense of spirituality and emotion. At the center of the painting, the Virgin Mary cradles the baby Jesus on her lap, surrounded by a multitude of angels. Their ethereal forms, with their delicate wings and serene expressions, add a sense of otherworldly beauty and grace to the composition. The Maesta, which means "the merciful one" in Latin, was a common depiction of the Virgin and Child during the Middle Ages. This painting, however, stands out for its intricate details, vibrant colors, and the sense of depth created by Cimabue's innovative use of perspective. The painting, executed in tempera on panel, is now housed at the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, particularly Italian art from the Middle Ages. The Maesta is a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of Europe and the enduring influence of Cimabue's groundbreaking work.
