Linen backing is the industry standard of conservation. Canvas is stretchered and a sheet of acid free barrier paper is laid down. The poster is then pasted to the acid free paper using an acid free paste. This process is fully reversible and gives support to the poster. A border of linen is left around the poster and can be used by a framer to mount the poster so that nothing touches the poster itself.
The price of this poster includes linen backing.
Lovely illustration of 2 young girls in traditional Japanese kimono, the younger holding a bought of flowers, stand in front of what appears to be the Sea of Japan as snow capped Mt Fuji, Japan's tallest peak, rises in the background.
