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
1. Title: "Dionysus, the God of Wine and Revelry: A 2nd Century Roman Marble Bust from the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Copenhagen, Denmark" This exquisite marble bust, dating back to the 2nd century AD, depicts the ancient Greek god Dionysus. Dionysus, also known as Bacchus in Roman mythology, was the god of wine, fertility, and theatrical arts. The god is often portrayed as a bearded, mature man with an intoxicating aura, as seen in this sculpture. The intricately carved features on the bust reveal a wise and serene expression on Dionysus' face, which is adorned with a flowing beard and long, curly hair. The god's age is evident in the subtle lines and wrinkles on his face, adding to the sense of depth and realism. Dionysus is shown wearing a wreath of ivy and grapes, symbolizing his association with the vine and wine. The god's right hand is missing, but it is believed that he once held a cup or a thyrsus, a staff topped with a pine cone, which was a symbol of his power and fertility. This magnificent bust is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of ancient Greece and Rome. It is a reminder of the profound influence these civilizations had on European art, literature, and philosophy. The Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen, Denmark, is privileged to house this priceless piece of antiquity, which continues to inspire awe and admiration in visitors from around the world. The intricate details of the marble carving, the subtle textures, and the lifelike expression on Dionysus' face all contribute to the enduring allure of this ancient deity. This bust is a reminder of the enduring power of art and the timeless beauty of the human form.
