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.

Love in the Steppe - A Marmot's Morning Cuddle Session!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this heartwarming snapshot, we witness a delightful duo of Himalayan Marmots embracing each other tightly as they bask in the chilly embrace of an early morning. These plump adults have found solace near their cozy burrow, eagerly awaiting the first rays of sun to warm their fur and awaken their sleepy senses. Ever vigilant, these adorable creatures keep a watchful eye on their surroundings for any potential danger that might lurk nearby. Surrounded by the lush steppe grasses that define their habitat in Russia's Orenburg region, this pair enjoys a peaceful moment together before embarking on another day filled with rodent adventures. As July unfolds, bare soil accumulates around their burrow entrance—a testament to the industrious digging and enlarging efforts undertaken by this family group. Their shared abode serves as both sanctuary and playground for these playful marmots who revel in each other's company. Captured through Andrey Zvoznikov's lens, this enchanting photograph showcases not just wildlife but also love and companionship thriving amidst nature's wonders. So let us celebrate these furry bobaks' affectionate bond as they remind us all to cherish our loved ones—whether it be cuddling up during cold mornings or simply observing life unfold together in a vast grassland paradise!
