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 striking photograph captures Horatio, Lord Kitchener, 1st Earl Kitchener of Khartoum, in his full military regalia as a soldier in 1919. The image, taken by renowned photographer Quinnell, showcases the iconic figure in his distinctive uniform, adorned with intricate gold braid and an abundance of buttons. Dating from the early 20th century, this photograph is a testament to the historical significance of Lord Kitchener, who rose to prominence as a British military leader in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Lord Kitchener's military career began in 1874, and he quickly gained a reputation for his strategic prowess and unwavering determination. He served in various capacities throughout the Sudan campaign, culminating in his famous victory at the Battle of Omdurman in 1898. This triumph earned him the title "Lord Kitchener of Khartoum," and solidified his place in British military history. The photograph reveals the meticulous attention to detail in Lord Kitchener's uniform, which includes a white shirt, gold braiding, and a tall, white hat with a gold band. The abundance of buttons on his jacket and trousers is a clear indication of his high rank and dedication to the military. Despite his successes in the Sudan campaign, Lord Kitchener's later years were marked by controversy and tragedy. He was appointed Secretary of State for War in 1914, but his tenure was cut short when he was lost at sea during World War I in 1916. This photograph, taken just three years before his untimely death, serves as a poignant reminder of Lord Kitchener's storied military career and enduring legacy.
