31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame

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 print showcases the intricate beauty of a Bullmouth Helmet shell, known scientifically as cypraecassis rufa. The empty shell is artfully depicted, allowing us to marvel at its unique features. The focal point of the image lies in the aperture or opening of the shell, revealing its inner structure and highlighting its natural pattern. The artist's watercolor painting technique brings out the delicate details of this sea life treasure against a pristine white background. From a high angle view, we can appreciate the full length and spiral shape of this remarkable animal shell. The Bullmouth Helmet's thick and tough exterior serves as protection for marine creatures that inhabit it during their lifetime. Its camouflage capabilities allow it to blend seamlessly with its surroundings in order to evade predators. In this still-life composition devoid of any human presence, we are left to contemplate the absence within this underwater world. The vibrant colors used in this illustration breathe life into an otherwise dead object, reminding us of nature's endless wonders. This artwork by Dorling Kindersley captures both scientific accuracy and artistic expression through its meticulous attention to detail. It invites viewers into a realm where watercolor strokes meet scientific observation, creating an enchanting visual experience that celebrates our fascination with nature's creations.
