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 photo print, we witness the incredible defensive skills of the elusive FG-12426. This little armadillo from Argentina, Paraguay, and parts of Brazil has perfected the art of protection like no other. Curled up in a seemingly impenetrable position, FG-12426 showcases its unique talent for deception. Its three banded armor serves as an ingenious puzzle that leaves predators scratching their heads in confusion. With circles and symmetry forming a mesmerizing pattern, it's hard not to be captivated by this armored wonder. The Tolypeutes matacus is truly a master at transforming itself into an impregnable ball. Its shape-shifting abilities are unparalleled in the animal kingdom. When danger lurks nearby, this South American superstar rolls into action, creating a shield that even Superman would envy! As we marvel at this single armadillo's remarkable defense mechanism, let us appreciate nature's ingenuity. From its cleverly designed armour to its perfectly executed curled-up pose - every detail tells a story of survival and adaptation. So next time you're feeling vulnerable or need some inspiration for self-protection tactics, take a page out of FG-12426's book! Remember: life may throw curveballs your way but with determination and creativity (and maybe some extra armor), you can conquer any challenge just like our resilient friend here.
