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 exquisite altar frontal dates back to the last quarter of the 12th century and is a prime example of Romanesque Art from Catalonia. The intricately detailed work was created using tempera on poplar wood and originated from the Monastery of La Mare de Deu in El Coll, now housed in the Episcopal Museum in Vic, Catalonia, Spain. The central focus of the altar frontal is the Virgin and Child, with the infant Jesus tenderly cradled in his mother's arms. The Virgin's serene expression and the delicate folds of her robe convey a sense of grace and reverence. Above her head, a crowned Virgin Mary is depicted, her face framed by a halo and adorned with a fleur-de-lis, a symbol of purity and the Passion of Christ. The fleur-de-lis motif is repeated throughout the altar frontal, adding an element of heraldry and visual interest. The intricate detailing and use of fleur-de-lis in the border further emphasizes the importance of this symbol in medieval art and culture. The altar frontal is a testament to the artistic achievements of the Romanesque period in Catalonia and the enduring influence of this style on European art. Its intricate details and beautiful use of color and form make it a prized work of art and an essential addition to any collection of medieval art.
