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
Commander Edward J. Smith: The Noble Captain of the Ill-Fated Titanic (1853-1912) In this evocative photograph, Commander Edward John Smith, the esteemed captain of the RMS Titanic, stands proudly in his naval uniform. Born on January 27, 1853, in Hanley, Staffordshire, England, Smith had an impressive maritime career before being appointed captain of the world's largest and most luxurious ocean liner. Smith's seafaring journey began at a young age, and he quickly rose through the ranks, working on various White Star Liners before captaining the Titanic. His experience and expertise were highly regarded within the industry, making him the ideal choice to command the Titanic on its maiden voyage. Tragically, the Titanic's maiden voyage would turn out to be its last. On April 14, 1912, the ship struck an iceberg and began to sink. Despite the chaos and confusion, Commander Smith remained calm and focused, ensuring the safety of as many passengers as possible before making the fateful decision to go down with the ship. His last noted words were reportedly, "Be British." The sinking of the Titanic remains one of the most significant events in maritime history, and Commander Smith's story is a poignant reminder of the human cost of this tragic disaster. This photograph captures the essence of a noble and experienced captain who gave his all to ensure the safety of his passengers, even in the face of insurmountable odds. This image is a powerful testament to the heroism and determination of Commander Edward J. Smith and serves as a reminder of the rich history of the White Star Line and the Titanic. This photograph is available as a print from Mary Evans Prints Online, and its historical significance makes it a must-have for any maritime history collection.
