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 illustration by Dorling Kindersley showcases the remarkable behavior of the Water Boatman (Sigara striata) as it skillfully uses its long legs to stand on water. The high angle view allows us to appreciate the full length of this delicate insect, emphasizing its fragility in a world dominated by water. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate natural patterns adorning the creature's body, perfectly captured through watercolor painting. The symmetrical reflection adds an element of tranquility to the scene, highlighting how seamlessly this tiny insect blends into its watery surroundings. In this moment frozen in time, we witness nature's ingenuity at work. The Water Boatman stands confidently on the surface of still waters, defying gravity with ease and grace. Its long legs serve not only as a means of support but also as a tool for camouflage against potential predators. With no people present in this serene outdoor setting, our focus is solely on appreciating and understanding this fascinating animal behavior. This illustration serves as a reminder that even within our everyday environments lie countless wonders waiting to be discovered and admired. Dorling Kindersley's masterful depiction invites us into a world where wildlife thrives and surprises await at every turn. Through their artistry, they bring forth not just an image but an invitation to explore and celebrate the beauty found all around us.
