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.

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 stunning lithograph by John Curtis captures the intricate beauty of a variety of diptere insects alongside the elegant plant of large peppers or officinale sanguisorb. Published in "British Entomology" between 1824 and 1839, this print is part of a collection of 770 illustrations and descriptions of British insects, showcasing Curtis' meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy.
In this particular piece, we see Tipula longicornis and Tipula flavolineata, also known as Long-horned daddy long-legs, gracefully intertwined with the great burnet plant Sanguisorba officinalis. The hand-colored copperplate adds a touch of vibrancy to the delicate lines and shading, bringing these creatures to life on paper.
Curtis was renowned for his dedication to capturing the essence of each insect he illustrated, providing valuable insights into their anatomy and behavior for generations to come. His work remains a testament to both his artistic skill and his passion for entomology.
As we gaze upon this lithograph, we are transported back in time to an era when naturalists like Curtis roamed the countryside in search of new discoveries. It serves as a reminder of the wonders that can be found in even the smallest corners of our world.
