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 print captures the historic moment when Giuseppe Garibaldi and his Red Shirts, the volunteer soldiers of the Expedition of the Thousand, entered Palermo, Sicily on May 12, 1860. The scene depicts Garibaldi, the Italian patriot and military leader, riding at the head of his men as they triumphantly march into the city, which had been under Neapolitan rule for centuries. The Neapolitan flag can be seen being lowered from the city walls, symbolizing the end of foreign domination and the beginning of Italian unification. Garibaldi's expedition, which began in 1860, was a pivotal event in Italian history. The goal was to liberate Sicily and Naples from the Bourbon monarchy and bring them into the newly formed Kingdom of Italy. The success of the expedition marked a turning point in the Italian unification process, which had been ongoing since the Risorgimento, or resurgence of Italian nationalism, in the early 19th century. The print captures the excitement and energy of the moment, with Garibaldi's men waving flags and cheering as they enter the city. The crowd in the background, made up of Palermitans and other Sicilians, eagerly await the arrival of their liberators. The print also serves as a reminder of the important role that ordinary people played in the Italian unification process, as volunteers from all over Europe joined Garibaldi's cause and helped to bring about the end of foreign rule in Sicily and Naples. This historic moment in Italian history is a testament to the power of determination, courage, and the desire for freedom and self-determination. The print serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by Garibaldi and his men, and the important role they played in shaping the modern Italian state.
