23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. 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.

Buffalo Spa Day - Splish, Splash, and a Yellow-billed Bash!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this wild water world of the South Langwa Valley in Zambia, an African Buffalo knows how to beat the heat with style! This print captures the moment when WAT-9191 decided it was time for a refreshing dip. With its massive frame gracefully submerged in the cool waters, our buffalo friend couldn't resist inviting some special guests to join in on the fun. Enter the Yellow-billed Oxpecker squad - nature's very own spa therapists! These tiny birds are not just here for a casual swim; they're actually hard at work providing their unique grooming services. As they hop around on WAT-9191's back, these feathered beauticians feast on parasites that hitchhike on our buffalo buddy's hide. It's truly a sight to behold - an unexpected partnership between two species brought together by mutual benefit. While WAT-9191 enjoys a soothing soak and relief from pesky pests, our diligent oxpeckers get their fill of tasty treats. Talk about teamwork! So next time you find yourself needing some relaxation or craving a bit of pampering, take inspiration from this remarkable image. Remember that even in nature's wildest corners, cooperation and symbiosis can create moments of pure bliss – where splashing meets feeding and cleaning becomes an art form.
