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
Saint John Vladimir, also known as Prince Jovan Vladimir or Jovan the Great, is depicted in this 18th-century painting by Konstantinos of Shpatit, housed in the National Museum of Medieval Art in Korce, Republic of Albania. The saint, who ruled Duklja in the 11th century, is shown seated on a throne, holding a cross in his right hand and blessing with his left. His long beard and serious expression convey the wisdom and piety of this important historical figure. Born around 990, Saint John Vladimir is considered a key figure in the spread of Christianity in the Balkans. He is believed to have been baptized in Constantinople by Emperor Basil II and returned to his lands to promote the new faith. The painting reflects the influence of Byzantine art, with its rich colors and intricate details. The scene is set against a backdrop of lush greenery and golden rays of sunlight, emphasizing the spiritual connection between the saint and nature. The throne, adorned with intricate patterns and symbols, underscores the power and authority of the ruler. This painting is a valuable historical and artistic treasure, providing insight into the religious and cultural traditions of the Middle Ages in the Balkans. Saint John Vladimir's legacy continues to inspire and intrigue scholars and visitors to the National Museum of Medieval Art in Korce, where this masterpiece is proudly displayed.
