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 snapshot by Peter Steyn, we witness the cunning deception of nature at its finest. Meet the adorable Pearl Spotted Owlet, a master of disguise with an ingenious trick up its feathers. Perched gracefully on a tree branch, it flaunts its mesmerizing plumage from behind - revealing an astonishing pair of false eyespots! With their large round shape and striking patterns, these deceptive spots mimic the gaze of a much larger predator lurking in the shadows. A clever ploy to ward off potential threats or intimidate unsuspecting prey! Don't be fooled by this petite owlet's innocent appearance; those eyespots are all part of an elaborate ruse. As we admire this single feathery wonder, let us marvel at Mother Nature's creativity and her ability to equip even the smallest creatures with incredible survival skills. The Pearl Spotted Owlet has truly mastered the art of camouflage and illusion. So next time you find yourself wandering through nature's enchanting realm, keep your eyes peeled for these feathered tricksters. They may just surprise you with their hidden talents and remind us that sometimes things aren't always what they seem – even in our wildest dreams!
