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
Nicolas Poussin's masterpiece, "Spring (The Earthly Paradise)," painted in 1660, is a stunning representation of the renewal and rebirth that comes with the arrival of spring. This oil painting, now housed at the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, is a prime example of the Classicism art movement that emerged during the 17th century. Poussin, a French painter born in 1594, was known for his allegorical and biblical paintings, often drawing inspiration from the Old Testament. In "Spring (The Earthly Paradise)," he depicts the four seasons personified, with each figure representing a different aspect of the natural world. The central figure of the painting is Spring, who stands in the midst of a lush garden, surrounded by the personifications of Summer, Autumn, and Winter. The painting is rich in symbolism, with the figures of the seasons arranged in a circular composition, representing the cyclical nature of time. The garden, reminiscent of the Garden of Eden, is filled with an abundance of fruit and flowers, symbolizing the fertility and renewal that comes with the changing of the seasons. Poussin's use of classical motifs and techniques, such as the use of chiaroscuro and the careful arrangement of figures, demonstrate his mastery of the art of painting. The painting's intricate details and subtle color palette invite the viewer to explore the painting further, revealing new layers of meaning with each glance. "Spring (The Earthly Paradise)" is a testament to Poussin's skill as a painter and his deep understanding of the natural world. It is a reminder of the beauty and renewal that can be found in the cycles of nature, and a reminder of the enduring power of art to capture and convey the essence of the world around us.
