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 transports us back to November 1933, where a mesmerizing display at the Natural History Museum in England takes center stage. The image showcases a magnificent Great Blue shark alongside two types of ray, all meticulously preserved through taxidermy. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the awe-inspiring diversity found within our planet's oceans. The museum setting adds an air of intellectual curiosity and reverence for these sea creatures. Behind the glass window, these majestic animals seem both lifelike and otherworldly, inviting viewers to marvel at their intricate details up close. The horizontal format allows us to fully appreciate the grandeur of this exhibit as it stretches across the frame. Although devoid of human presence, this photograph captures a moment that sparks our imagination and fuels our desire to explore nature's wonders.
