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 Title: A Glimpse into the Past: The Domesday Book of Shropshire, England, 1085 The Domesday Book, an invaluable historical document from medieval England, is a record of the resources and taxable values of the boroughs and manors in Shropshire, as compiled in approximately 1085 AD. This extract from the Great Domesday Book provides a fascinating glimpse into the social, economic, and political landscape of Shropshire during the late 11th century. At the time, England was under the rule of William the Conqueror, who, following his victory at the Battle of Hastings in 1066, initiated a comprehensive survey of his new realm to assess its wealth and resources. The resulting Domesday Book, which was completed in two parts between 1085 and 1086, is a testament to the meticulous organization and administrative prowess of the Norman administration. This particular excerpt from the Domesday Book pertains to the county of Shropshire, located in the west Midlands of England. The document lists various manors, their lords, and the resources and taxes associated with them. The entries reveal a diverse range of agricultural activities, including arable farming, pasture, woodlands, and fisheries, as well as the presence of mills, churches, and markets. The Domesday Book is a precious source of information for historians, genealogists, and anyone interested in the history of England during the Middle Ages. Its meticulous records offer insights into the social structure, economic conditions, and administrative organization of the time, making it an essential resource for understanding the history of Shropshire and England as a whole. This photograph is a reproduction of the original Domesday Book, which is now housed in the National Archives in Kew, London. It serves as a reminder of the rich historical heritage that continues to inspire and captivate scholars and enthusiasts alike.
