Penguin Great Auk


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.

In this print titled "Great Auk birds from Great Britain 1897" we are transported back in time to the late 19th century. The image, captured by R. Bowdler Sharpe and published in London, showcases the remarkable beauty of these now-extinct creatures. The Great Auks, native to the British Isles, were known for their distinctive appearance reminiscent of penguins. With their sleek black feathers contrasting against a white underbelly, they possessed an undeniable elegance that is beautifully portrayed in this photograph. As we gaze upon this piece from THEPALMER's collection at Fine Art Storehouse, we can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia and wonderment. It serves as a poignant reminder of the fragility and impermanence of life on Earth.
