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 incredible snapshot captured by Ardea Wildlife, we witness nature's genius at work as an orange Painted Frogfish effortlessly imitates a sponge. With its intricate patterns and vibrant colors, it seamlessly blends into its surroundings, leaving us in awe. The cunning predator has perfected the art of disguise to become one with the underwater world. Its black eyes peering through the sandy seabed give away its true identity, but only to those observant enough to notice. This clever creature knows that blending in is key when it comes to hunting for prey. As if straight out of a spy movie, this stealthy frogfish lurks amidst Lembeh's marine wonders off Sulawesi Island in Indonesia. It navigates through the straits with finesse and grace, always ready for an unexpected encounter. With each passing moment, we can't help but feel a sense of amazement mixed with amusement – "Aw shucks!" we exclaim as we marvel at Mother Nature's creativity. Who would have thought that a seemingly harmless sponge could be home to such an extraordinary hunter? So next time you find yourself diving into the depths of our saltwater wonderland, keep your eyes peeled for these masterful imitators disguised as sponges – they might just surprise you!
