Barnacles Hermit Crab Mollusc Scallop Shell
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
This print titled "Cardum Rusticum and Pagurus Bernhardi in a Periwinkle Shell" takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the wonders of the shore. Illustrated by Charles Kingsley, this artwork showcases his exceptional talent for capturing the beauty of marine life. In this image, we are transported to the depths of the sea, where a periwinkle shell becomes home to Cardum Rusticum and Pagurus Bernhardi. The intricate details of these creatures are brought to life through Kingsley's skilled brushstrokes. The vibrant colors and delicate textures make it feel as though we could reach out and touch them. The juxtaposition of the scallop shell with its elegant curves against the hermit crab's spiky exterior creates an intriguing contrast. It reminds us that nature is full of unexpected partnerships and symbiotic relationships. As our gaze explores further, we notice tiny barnacles clinging onto their new abode, adding another layer of complexity to this underwater ecosystem. This snapshot from Glaucus or "the Wonders of the Shore" serves as a reminder that even in seemingly insignificant spaces like shells at the bottom of the sea, there exists an entire world waiting to be discovered. This remarkable piece captures not only scientific accuracy but also evokes a sense of wonderment about our natural surroundings. It invites viewers to appreciate both artistry and nature's marvels simultaneously.
