17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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.

Perched high up in a tree within the lush Ilanos region of Venezuela, this feathered marvel effortlessly blends into its surroundings like a true avian chameleon. With an air of mystery surrounding it, the Great Potoo is renowned for its ability to mimic tree bark and remain virtually invisible to unsuspecting prey and curious onlookers alike. Its remarkable adaptation allows it to seamlessly merge with the intricate patterns and textures of its arboreal habitat. As we gaze at this incredible photograph, one can't help but wonder if there's more than meets the eye. Is that really just a branch or part of nature's artistry?

It teaches us about survival strategies beyond our comprehension and showcases Mother Nature's unparalleled creativity.
