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 photo print, we witness an extraordinary moment of connection between two species that are worlds apart - a chimpanzee and a human. With their hands firmly clasped together, it's as if these remarkable beings have momentarily set aside their differences to acknowledge each other's presence. The mischievous twinkle in the chimp's eyes suggests a shared sense of curiosity and playfulness. As they lock hands, one can't help but wonder what thoughts are passing through their minds. Are they exchanging secrets? Or perhaps engaging in some sort of silent communication that only they understand? This heartwarming image serves as a powerful reminder of our interconnectedness with the animal kingdom. It challenges us to reconsider our preconceived notions about intelligence, empathy, and friendship across species boundaries. Caught in black-and-white hues, this photograph beautifully captures the essence of wildlife encounters while evoking nostalgia for simpler times when humans lived more harmoniously alongside nature. It transports us to Zambia's southern region in Central Africa – an enchanting land where both chimps and humans coexist. So let this mesmerizing snapshot serve as a gentle nudge for all humanity to extend our hands not just towards fellow humans but also towards our furry counterparts who share this planet with us. After all, isn't it incredible how something as simple as a handshake can bridge gaps that seem insurmountable?
