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 delightful snapshot captured by Andrey Zvoznikov, we witness the epitome of relaxation as a pair of Himalayan Marmots soak up the sun's warm embrace. These chubby adults are clearly on a mission to stockpile some serious winter insulation before their long hibernation. One marmot luxuriously sprawls across a bed of freshly dug warm stones, while its vigilant partner keeps an eye out for any lurking dangers in the surroundings. Surrounded by lush steppe grasses that are typical in Russia's Orenburg region, these furry friends have found themselves the perfect spot to unwind and recharge. It's morning in July, and as they bask under the golden rays, you can't help but notice how bare soil near their burrow accumulates from all their digging adventures. This cozy burrow is not just home to our dynamic duo; it serves as a sanctuary for an entire family group! With their plump figures and adorable expressions, these marmots remind us that sometimes all we need is good company and a little sunshine to make life truly enjoyable. So let this heartwarming image be your daily reminder to take some time off, find your own sunny spot amidst life's hustle-bustle, and indulge in some well-deserved rest like these nature-loving bobaks!
