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.

1. Title: The Majestic Youghal Clock Gate - A 18th Century Architectural Marvel in the Historic Seaport of Youghal, County Cork, Ireland The Youghal Clock Gate, a captivating architectural masterpiece, stands proudly in the heart of the historic seaport town of Youghal, County Cork, Ireland. Dating back to the 18th century, this clock gate was built in 1777 on the site of Trinity Castle, which was once part of the town's formidable fortifications. The clock gate, with its intricate stonework and ornate clock face, is a testament to the rich history and heritage of this charming Irish town. The gate's construction marks a significant period in Youghal's history, as it replaced the original castle gate that had been destroyed during the Siege of Youghal in 1642. The clock gate's design is a harmonious blend of Gothic and Classical architectural styles, featuring pointed arches, intricate carvings, and a grand clock face adorned with Roman numerals. The clock, which continues to function to this day, was a generous gift from the Earl of Cork and was added to the gate in 1784. As visitors stroll through the picturesque streets of Youghal, the clock gate serves as a reminder of the town's storied past. Its presence adds a sense of charm and allure to the historic seaport, drawing in tourists and locals alike to marvel at its beauty and historical significance. The Youghal Clock Gate is a must-see destination for anyone interested in Irish history and architecture.
