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.

Oasis of Cool - Gemsbok Find Perfect Spot to Beat the Heat in Kalahari Desert
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot, three gemsboks have discovered the ultimate desert oasis - a shady refuge under a magnificent camelthorn tree. As the scorching sun beats down on the arid landscape of Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, these elegant antelopes have sought solace in nature's own air-conditioned haven. With their majestic horns and striking markings, gemsboks are already known for their regal presence. But here they appear even more enchanting as they stand gracefully beneath the sprawling branches of an Acacia erioloba tree. The contrast between their sandy coats and the vibrant green foliage creates a visually stunning tableau. These herbivorous mammals seem completely at ease as they bask in the coolness provided by this natural shelter. Their relaxed postures suggest that not only are they escaping from the relentless heat, but also taking some well-deserved respite from their daily routines. The image captures a moment frozen in time – a serene scene amidst harsh surroundings. It serves as a reminder that even in one of Earth's most unforgiving environments, life finds ways to adapt and thrive. So next time you find yourself seeking shade on a sweltering day, remember these clever gemsboks who found comfort under an ancient camelthorn tree deep within South Africa's Kalahari Desert.
