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.

Crabby Christmas Chaos: A Feast for the Eyes!". In this print by Jean-Paul Ferrero, we witness a thrilling underwater showdown between two crab species on Christmas Island. The vibrant blue crab, JPF-9721, takes center stage as it cunningly preys upon its red crab counterpart, Gecarcoidea natalis. This intense battle of survival unfolds in the crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean. The image showcases the incredible diversity and beauty of wildlife found on this Australian territory. Amidst the tropical paradise of Christmas Island, these crustaceans engage in a high-stakes game of predator and prey. With their sharp claws poised for attack, they demonstrate nature's raw power at its finest. But wait! There's more to this picture-perfect moment than meets the eye. As our fearless blue crab sets out on its hunting mission, other marine creatures lurk nearby - an intriguing mix of species observing this spectacle with curiosity or perhaps awaiting their own chance to snatch a meal. Jean-Paul Ferrero's expert lens captures not only an awe-inspiring display of nature's drama but also invites us into a world where even crabs can become superstars! So dive into this enchanting photograph and let your imagination run wild as you witness one unforgettable encounter beneath the waves.
