17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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
Behold the Pink Ballerina, gracefully pirouetting in an ancient turf! This rare and iconic waxcap fungi steals the show in this enchanting autumn scene. With its vibrant pink hue, it's no wonder this little dancer is a priority action species. Nestled among old churchyard ruins, this single mushroom stands out like a star on stage. But don't be fooled by its delicate appearance - behind that elegant façade lies a poisonous secret. The Pink Ballerina may look innocent, but it packs quite a toxic punch! In the United Kingdom's picturesque countryside, finding such unusual shapes and colors is like stumbling upon hidden treasure. Bob Gibbons has captured not just a plant or fungus, but pure magic frozen in time. As you gaze at this photo print, let your imagination run wild with visions of fairies dancing under moonlit skies. Let the beauty of nature transport you to another world where mushrooms become ballerinas and churchyards transform into enchanted realms. So take a moment to appreciate Mother Nature's artistry and marvel at her ability to create something so extraordinary from humble beginnings. And remember, even in the smallest corners of our planet, there are wonders waiting to be discovered.
