A2 (59.4 x 42cm) Poster Print
Bring the captivating world of herpetology into your home with our stunning Media Storehouse poster print of John Cancalosi's photograph of a Grass Snake (Natrix natrix) in the process of shedding its skin. This impressive image, taken in the UK, showcases the intricate patterns and vibrant colors of this largely diurnal European reptile. Though it may hiss and strike when disturbed, the Grass Snake rarely bites and, when handled, may release a foul-smelling substance from its anal glands. This beautifully detailed poster is perfect for any nature enthusiast's wall and serves as a reminder of the wonders that can be found in our natural world. Note: This print is intended for personal display purposes only and may not be reproduced in any way (CAN-3300).
A2 Poster (59.4 x 42cm, 23.4" x 16.5" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.
Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.
Estimated Image Size (if not cropped) is 39.6cm x 59.4cm (15.6" x 23.4")
Estimated Product Size is 42cm x 59.4cm (16.5" x 23.4")
These are individually made so all sizes are approximate
Artwork printed orientated as per the preview above, with portrait (vertical) orientation to match the source image.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Snake Shenanigans: When Shedding Becomes a Spectacle!". In this photo print, captured by the talented John Cancalosi, we witness the incredible transformation of CAN-3300 - also known as the Grass Snake. This reptilian beauty from the United Kingdom is shedding its skin like a pro! With its largely diurnal nature and widespread presence across Europe, this snake knows how to make an entrance. But beware! When disturbed, it may hiss and strike (though rarely bites). And if that's not enough to deter intruders, it has another trick up its scaly sleeve – feigning death by lying on its back with mouth open and tongue hanging out! Talk about dramatic flair! But wait, there's more! Our slippery friend possesses yet another talent – swimming like a champ. It can even hunt in water! So next time you're taking a dip in European waters, keep your eyes peeled for this aquatic hunter. And let's not forget about its unique defense mechanism - when handled improperly, it might unleash foul-smelling contents from its anal gland. Yikes! That'll teach anyone who messes with our sly serpent. So here's to celebrating growth and development in all forms of wildlife! Let John Cancalosi's stunning close-up capture of CAN-3300 remind us that shedding skin can be both fascinating and entertaining – just don't try these tricks at home!
