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
In this photograph, an adult Willow Tit (Poecile montanus, also known as Parus montanus) displays territorial behavior as it approaches an intruder in its breeding territory in the early spring. The image was captured in a mixed forest located near Ekaterinburg in the Middle Ural Mountains of Russia. The Willow Tit's vibrant yellow underparts and distinctive black and white checks are clearly visible as it surveys its surroundings with keen interest. Historically, the Willow Tit was once considered a subspecies of the Marsh Tit, but it was reclassified as a distinct species in the late 20th century. These birds are small, agile birds that inhabit wetlands and wooded areas, with a preference for willow and poplar trees. They are important indicators of forest health and biodiversity, as they feed primarily on insects and their larvae. During the breeding season, Willow Tits fiercely defend their territories from other birds, using a variety of vocalizations and physical displays to ward off intruders. In this photograph, the bird's alert posture and focused gaze suggest that it is on high alert, ready to defend its territory from any perceived threat. The dominant conifers in the background provide a striking contrast to the open, sunlit areas where the Willow Tit thrives. Overall, this image offers a fascinating glimpse into the territorial behavior of this beautiful and historically significant bird species.
