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

With her powerful jaws wide open and water splashing all around her, she fearlessly leaps out of the river to protect her precious nest situated on the riverbank. This single female crocodile showcases not only extraordinary action and movement but also a dangerous yet awe-inspiring display of parenting at its finest. Her threatening posture communicates loud and clear that no harm shall come to her offspring under any circumstances. As she charges forward with unwavering courage, it's hard not to feel a mix of both excitement and trepidation. This South American beauty reminds us why these ancient reptiles have instilled fear in our hearts for centuries. The lush greenery surrounding the river adds depth to this already mesmerizing scene, while highlighting the importance of preserving their natural habitat for future generations to marvel at such wonders. So let this remarkable print serve as a reminder that even in nature's most perilous moments, love knows no bounds – whether you're human or an Orinoco crocodile defending your nest!
