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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot, we witness the avian equivalent of a red carpet event as our feathery friends from Bird Island, Eastern Cape Province, South Africa put on an impressive display. These elegant and charismatic Cape Gannets have taken center stage to showcase their unique courtship behavior. With heads held high and wings gracefully stretched out, these sea birds are not just showing off their impeccable style but also engaging in important communication rituals. Their synchronized movements create a mesmerizing spectacle that leaves us in awe of nature's beauty. It seems like they've mastered the art of non-verbal communication as they effortlessly convey their intentions through body language alone. This stunning photograph by Ingrid van den Berg captures the precise moment when one gannet steals the spotlight with its head raised high above others, demanding attention and admiration. As we marvel at this remarkable scene, it becomes clear that these African gannets possess both grace and charm in abundance. They remind us that even in the animal kingdom, fashion statements and elaborate displays play a crucial role in attracting mates and forming lasting bonds. So let's take inspiration from these fabulous feathered models! Strike your best pose, stretch those limbs (or wings), and communicate your desires without uttering a single word – just like our stylish Cape Gannets!
