31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 print captured by AWL, we witness the fascinating behavior of an immature African Harrier-Hawk, also known as a Gymnogene. Perched on a dead tree in Kenya's central province, the bird skillfully claws out grubs from the holes made by borer beetles. The Gymnogene's long flexible legs prove to be essential tools as it probes for and grabs its desired prey. This raptor species has developed a unique hunting technique that often involves stealing young swifts and weavers from their cavity nests. With precision and agility, these fully-grown birds use their impressive leg length to reach deep into the nests and snatch away unsuspecting chicks. This particular image showcases not only the incredible adaptability of wildlife but also highlights the intricate relationship between predator and prey in nature. The contrasting textures of the dead tree against the vibrant feathers of the African Harrier-Hawk create a visually striking composition. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of both the beauty and harsh realities found within our natural world. It serves as a testament to how every creature plays its part in maintaining balance within ecosystems while showcasing Africa's diverse avian population. NP (not for commercial use)
