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
Fray Diego de Zárate, a prominent Spanish Jesuit figure of the 17th century, is depicted in this striking portrait painted by the renowned Spanish Baroque artist Francisco de Zurbarán. The portrait, which dates back to around 1630, showcases Fray Diego's pious and contemplative demeanor, with his serious expression and downcast gaze, symbolizing his deep spiritual commitment to his religious vocation. Fray Diego de Zárate (1576-1650) was born in Seville, Spain, and joined the Society of Jesus in 1593. He later became the Provincial Superior of the Andalusian Province of the Society of Jesus, a position he held from 1629 to 1635. During his tenure, he played a significant role in the Jesuit missionary efforts in the New World, particularly in Peru. This portrait, which is currently housed at the Aisa Museum in New Haven, Connecticut, is an import from the Gallen-Kndler Museum in Vienna, Austria. An identical copy of this painting once existed at the Gallen-Kndler Museum, demonstrating the widespread influence and popularity of Zurbarán's work during the Baroque period. Francisco de Zurbarán (1598-1664) was a leading figure in the Spanish Baroque art movement, known for his distinctive chiaroscuro technique and his depictions of religious and mythological themes. His portraits, like this one of Fray Diego de Zárate, are characterized by their strong sense of realism and their ability to convey the inner emotions and spiritual depth of their subjects. This portrait not only offers a glimpse into the life of an important historical figure but also showcases the artistic mastery of one of Spain's greatest painters. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the Spanish Baroque period and the enduring influence of its artists on the history of Western art.
