Beak Carrion East Faced Lappet Maasai Mara Scavenger Torgos Tracheliotus Vulture Vultures
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 majestic Lappet-faced Vulture indulging in its favorite delicacy - carrion! With its impressive wingspan and sharp beak, this scavenger reigns supreme as it devours its meal with gusto. Perched amidst the stunning backdrop of Maasai Mara National Park in Kenya, East Africa, this African beauty showcases nature's raw power and grace. Its lappets (those fleshy folds on either side of its face) add an extra touch of regality to this already magnificent bird. As it feasts on the spoils of nature's cycle, our vulture friend reminds us that even the most unglamorous tasks can have their own charm. With each bite taken by those powerful jaws, it plays a crucial role in maintaining balance within our ecosystem. The intensity captured in this photograph is awe-inspiring. It serves as a reminder that there is beauty to be found even in life's less glamorous moments. So next time you come across these incredible creatures soaring through the sky or perched atop a tree branch, take a moment to appreciate their vital contribution to our natural world. This print from Ardea Wildlife Pets Environment allows us to bring home a piece of wildlife wonderment while supporting conservation efforts worldwide. Let your walls come alive with the untamed spirit of Africa and celebrate nature's unique creations!
