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
This oil painting, titled "Whaler Moored to Ice, 1892-93" by William G. Burn-Murdoch takes us back in time to the late 19th century. The artist skillfully captures a moment of maritime history with intricate details and vibrant colors. In this scene, we see a majestic whaling vessel firmly anchored to the icy surface of an Arctic landscape. The ship's tall masts proudly display their sails as they stand against the backdrop of towering glaciers and icebergs. A sense of isolation is conveyed as the ship appears surrounded by vast stretches of frozen wilderness. The painting evokes a feeling of adventure and exploration, transporting us to an era when brave sailors embarked on perilous expeditions in search of precious whale oil. It reminds us of the challenges faced by these seafarers as they navigated treacherous waters while battling harsh weather conditions. Amidst this frozen expanse, one cannot help but notice a group of penguins gracefully waddling nearby, adding a touch of whimsy to the otherwise rugged scene. Their presence serves as a reminder that life can flourish even in seemingly inhospitable environments. "Whaler Moored to Ice" is not only an exquisite piece of art but also a window into history and human resilience. It invites viewers to reflect upon our relationship with nature and our relentless pursuit for resources during times past.
