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
John Singleton Copley's captivating portrait of John, Baron Lyndhurst, depicts the prominent British statesman and lord chancellor deeply engrossed in a book, reflecting his profound intellect and dedication to the law. Born in 1772, John, later known as the First Baron Lyndhurst, rose to prominence in the political sphere during the 19th century. His distinguished career began in the House of Commons, where he represented various constituencies, and culminated in his appointment as lord chancellor in 1834. The painting, created in 1772, captures the essence of Lyndhurst's character and his commitment to his work. The somber background and the dimly lit room add to the serious and contemplative atmosphere, emphasizing the importance of the book in Lyndhurst's hands. The meticulous attention to detail in Copley's painting is evident in the intricately rendered folds of Lyndhurst's robe and the lifelike portrayal of his face, which conveys a sense of deep concentration and wisdom. Lyndhurst's tenure as lord chancellor was marked by his significant contributions to the legal system, including the passage of several important acts, such as the Married Women's Property Act and the Matrimonial Causes Act. His dedication to the law and his commitment to improving the lives of ordinary people through legislation solidified his place in British history as a respected and influential statesman. This portrait by John Singleton Copley offers a glimpse into the life of one of Britain's most esteemed political figures, providing a window into the past and a reminder of the enduring importance of knowledge, intellect, and dedication to public service.
