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: "Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey: A Tragic Figure of Tudor Politics" This evocative portrait captures the enigmatic and complex character of Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey (1517?-1547). Born into the noble Howard family, Surrey was a soldier, statesman, and poet, whose political games ultimately led to his tragic end. The image, believed to have been painted around the time of Surrey's execution in 1547, shows him in the prime of his life, with piercing eyes that seem to convey a sense of intensity and determination. His attire, adorned with the badge of the Howard family, signifies his noble status. Surrey's political career began promisingly under King Henry VIII, but his ambition and desire for power led him to make dangerous alliances. He was implicated in the intrigues surrounding the succession to the throne, and his actions led to his arrest and trial on charges of treason. Despite his political missteps, Surrey was also a talented poet, known for his innovative use of blank verse. His most famous work, "The Foure Last Sonets," is a poignant reflection on the transience of life and the inevitability of death. The portrait serves as a reminder of the human cost of political ambition and the unpredictable nature of power in Tudor England. Surrey's tragic story continues to captivate historians and literary scholars, making this image a valuable addition to any collection focused on the Tudor period. The intricate details of the portrait, from the textured fabric of Surrey's clothing to the subtle shading of his face, bring the subject to life and invite the viewer to contemplate the complexities of his character. This image is a testament to the enduring fascination with the Tudor era and the intriguing figures who shaped its history.
