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.

Love in the Antarctic - A Well-Fed Gentoo Penguin Parent Shows Affection by Feeding its Hungry Chick!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this heartwarming snapshot captured by Charles Sleicher, we witness a beautiful display of parental care and dependency in the Southern Ocean. Amidst the icy backdrop of South Orkney Island, a plump Gentoo Penguin is seen regurgitating food for its adorable chick. As hunger strikes, this dedicated parent demonstrates an extraordinary act of love - sharing its own nourishment to ensure the little one's survival. The fluffy chick eagerly awaits each morsel with wide eyes and open beak, showcasing their strong bond amidst Antarctica's harsh conditions. The image perfectly encapsulates the essence of family dynamics within these remarkable birds. The chubby parent penguin seems to take pride in providing for its dependent offspring, while the chick radiates pure joy and gratitude as it receives a belly-filling meal. With endless stretches of icy landscapes surrounding them, this tender moment reminds us that even in such extreme environments, love knows no boundaries. It serves as a reminder that affectionate gestures can be found everywhere - from bustling cities to remote corners of our planet. So let this photograph warm your heart as you marvel at nature's wonders. Witnessing this well-fed duo thriving amidst Antarctica's freezing temperatures is truly awe-inspiring!
