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
This print showcases the Indian cliff swallow, also known as Petrochelidon fluvicola or Rufos-headed swallow (Hirundo indica). The handcoloured copperplate was meticulously drawn and engraved by John Latham for his renowned work, A General History of Birds, published in Winchester in 1823. Latham's attention to detail is evident in this exquisite piece of art. The vibrant colors bring the bird to life, capturing its beauty and grace. With its distinctive rufous head and sleek body, the Indian cliff swallow stands out against a backdrop of lush foliage. The engraving not only serves as a visual delight but also holds immense scientific value. It provides ornithologists with an accurate representation of this particular species during the 19th century. Latham's contribution to ornithology cannot be understated; his meticulous observations and illustrations have greatly advanced our understanding of avian diversity. As we gaze upon this artwork today, we are transported back in time to an era when naturalists like Latham dedicated their lives to documenting Earth's rich biodiversity. This image reminds us of the importance of preserving our planet's wildlife and appreciating the wonders that nature has bestowed upon us. This stunning portrayal invites us to marvel at the intricate patterns on feathers, admire nature's color palette, and contemplate our place within this vast ecosystem. Let it serve as a reminder that every creature has its own unique story waiting to be discovered and cherished.
