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
Francesco Massimiliano Laboureur (1767-1831): A Prominent Italian Sculptor of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries This sculpture, titled "Metabus and his Daughter," is the masterpiece of Italian sculptor Francesco Massimiliano Laboureur, created in the year 1820. The artwork is currently housed in the esteemed Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest, Hungary, adding to the rich cultural heritage of the city. Laboureur, a contemporary artist of the 18th and 19th centuries, was a significant figure in the world of sculpture during his time. His works were deeply rooted in mythology, showcasing his profound understanding and interpretation of ancient myths and legends. The sculpture depicts the mythical figures of Metabus, a Volscian king, and his daughter. Metabus is shown holding a defensive arch shield, while his young daughter, with an arrow in her hand, gazes intently at an infant or a kid. The mythological story behind this scene is derived from Virgil's Aeneid, where Metabus is described as a brave and just ruler, who protects his daughter Camilla, a renowned warrior maiden, from harm. The intricate details in the sculpture are a testament to Laboureur's exceptional skills as a sculptor. The delicate features of the figures, their lifelike expressions, and the realistic textures of their clothing and accessories are all evidence of his artistic prowess. The composition of the group, with the protective father and his determined daughter, evokes a sense of strength, love, and courage. This sculpture is a precious addition to the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest, providing visitors with a glimpse into the rich history and mythology of ancient Italy. Laboureur's masterful creation continues to inspire and captivate art lovers and history enthusiasts alike, making it a must-see attraction for anyone visiting Hungary.
