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.

Hoya de Don Garcia Noria (1818): A Glimpse into the Past of Irrigation in the Segura River, Abaran, Murcia, Spain This wood print, dated back to 1818, showcases the Hoya de Don Garcia Noria, an intricate waterwheel system located in the Ricote Valley of Abaran, Murcia, Spain. The region, known for its arid climate, has relied heavily on hydraulic systems like this one to support its agricultural needs since ancient times. The Hoya de Don Garcia Noria is a fine example of the noria, a traditional waterwheel mechanism used for irrigation in Spain. This particular noria is believed to have been in operation until the late 20th century, making it a valuable historical artifact. The noria's large wooden wheel, turned by the flowing water of the Segura River, channeled water to the surrounding farmlands, enabling the cultivation of crops in this otherwise inhospitable terrain. The intricate design of the noria is a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the people who built it. The system's wooden components, worn and weathered by time, tell a story of the passage of generations and the enduring importance of water in the region's history. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, witnessing the simple yet effective solution to the challenges of agriculture in a region characterized by water scarcity. The Hoya de Don Garcia Noria stands as a symbol of the resilience and determination of the people of Abaran, who continue to adapt and innovate in the face of environmental constraints. This print serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that can be found in the most unexpected places, as well as the importance of preserving and celebrating the past to better understand the present and shape the future.
