Mouths Tongue Tongues Rainforests
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
Who needs a spoon when you have a tongue like this? Meet the AUS-1762, the sun bear with an impressive superpower - its incredibly long tongue! This print captures the moment when this adorable yet potentially dangerous bear shows off its unique feature. With a diet consisting of honey, termites, bees, bird's eggs, and even carrion, it's no wonder this little guy evolved such an advantageous tool. Named after the sun-like spot on its chest, the AUS-1762 is proof that good things come in small packages. Don't be fooled by its size though; this tiny bear still packs a punch! Found in tropical rainforests stretching from Burma to Sumatra and with smaller subspecies in Borneo and Southeast Asia, it truly is an Asian gem. In Wayne Lawler's incredible photograph, we see the AUS-1762 facing us head-on with its mouth wide open. It's as if it wants to say 'Look at me and my amazing tongue!' And boy oh boy do we look! So next time you're enjoying your breakfast cereal or licking ice cream off your cone, remember that there's someone out there who can do it better - the sun bear with their extraordinary tongue!
