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
Tadeusz Kosciuszko (1746-1817): A Polish Military Engineering and National Hero This 19th century engraving portrays Tadeusz Kosciuszko, a renowned Polish military engineer and military leader, who rose to prominence during the late 18th century. Born on February 4, 1746, in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Kosciuszko's military career began at a young age. He was educated in France and later served in the French military, where he gained extensive experience in engineering and military strategy. Kosciuszko's most significant contributions to Polish history came during the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth's struggle for independence against foreign powers. In 1794, he led the Kosciuszko Uprising, a military campaign aimed at regaining Polish sovereignty. Although the rebellion ultimately failed, Kosciuszko's bravery and determination became a symbol of Polish resistance. Following the uprising, Kosciuszko went into exile in the United States, where he was welcomed as a hero and offered American citizenship. He declined the offer, choosing instead to continue his fight for Polish independence. Kosciuszko passed away on October 15, 1817, leaving behind a legacy as a national hero in Poland. This striking portrait, colored in the 19th century, captures the intensity and determination of this remarkable military leader and engineer. Kosciuszko's story is a testament to the indomitable spirit of the Polish people and their unwavering commitment to freedom and independence. Andrzej Bonawentura, the artist behind this engraving, masterfully conveys the essence of this European personage, whose influence extended beyond the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and into the broader European and American historical contexts.
