24x36 in (60x90 cm) print of the English translation of Magna Carta in modern, readable type with the arms of the 25 barons of surety as shown on John Pine's 1733 engraving
In the summer of 1215, King John met with rebellious barons on the plain of Runnymede, just 20 miles (32 kilometers) west of modern-day central London. The peace accord they agreed to, brokered by the archbishop of Canterbury, did little to ease the rising tensions between the king and his nobles. Yet the principles of liberty and rule of law laid out that fifteenth day of June in 1215 continue to guide and inspire individuals and democracies around the globe. The name of that document is fitting: Magna Carta, or Great Charter.
In recognition of this 800th anniversary year of Magna Carta is a new print of the 1215 version of the charter. This modern English translation of Magna Carta's original Latin is beautifully displayed in readable, modern type. The numbered clauses into which Magna Carta was later divided are indicated, while footnotes provide information on which clauses were included in or omitted from subsequent versions of the charter as well as which clauses remain part of England's statute law today.
Clause 61 of the charter provides for a group of 25 barons, "surety" for enforcement of the charter's provisions. The arms of these 25 barons as shown on John Pine's 1733 engraving of Magna Carta are displayed in the upper left-hand portion of the print.
This is a fitting tribute to one of the most important documents in human history and will display beautifully in a home, office, classroom, or other setting.

Bulk and wholesale pricing is available. Please contact me for additional information.
Terms for digital orders
For digital orders, the following terms apply. Electronic files are provided for your personal, noncommercial use only. You may print copies solely for your use in a home, classroom, or office setting. You may make and keep only the electronic copies of these files that you may need for future use or reference, and you may store them only on your own computers or in your own accounts on servers or the cloud. These files should not be modified in any way, compiled with other electronic files, or transmitted to others by any electronic or internet means.
Prints are not framed
Please note that, to keep my costs low and to pass those savings on to you, prints are not framed. All prints are shipped rolled in sturdy shipping tubes.
Please note
I strive to fulfill all orders, including custom orders, as quickly as possible—typically within one day for items I have in stock. However, please note that I am a stay-at-home dad to three small children and they come first (if they don’t, they are quick to let me know that my priorities are out of order). So if I am delayed in delivering your order, particularly a custom order, please be patient and understanding. Thank you!
Packing slip
To save weight on shipments, which saves shipping costs, as well as to reduce paper waste, I do not include a packing slip with my shipments. If you would like a packing slip included in your shipment, please message me at the time you place your order. If you need a packing slip for a past order, please message me and I will be happy to provide one for download in PDF.
Free shipping
When free shipping is offered on an item, note that it will be shipped via the lowest-cost service, even if you select a higher-cost service (such as USPS Priority Mail) at checkout.
Not all the items I ordered arrived in the package I received. Where is the rest of my order?
Please note that, because of the various production techniques I use, some orders may arrive in two or more separate packages. You will receive tracking information for each package when it ships.
I purchased the digital version of one of your prints by accident. Can I get a refund?
Yes — as long as you haven’t downloaded it yet (and yes, I can see on my end whether you’ve downloaded it or not). If you’ve purchased the digital version by accident, DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT and let me know of the error. We’ll make it right through a refund or exchange, or by figuring out another solution. But once you download the PDF, your purchase can’t be refunded, because there’s no reliable way for me to verify that you’ve deleted the downloaded file from your computer or other storage devices.

Poster is as described. Purchased this item believing it to come framed but it did not. I was charged inordinate amount of $45 for shipping *from the USA* when in actual fact it was printed, fulfilled and shipped from Melbourne, Australia....$10 would've covered the shipping easily. Will NOT purchase from this seller again due to lack of clarity regarding *framed or unframed* and no conscience regards the exorbitant shipping.
