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. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 by Dorling Kindersley showcases the elegance and precision of a Rynchops niger, commonly known as the Black Skimmer. In mid-flight, this magnificent bird dips its beak into shallow water with remarkable skill and grace. The image captures the skimmer's bill just moments before it makes contact with the surface, highlighting its unique hunting technique. The Black Skimmer belongs to the charadriiformes order and is part of the rynchopidae family. Indigenous to regions such as Central America and the Caribbean, these birds are expert flyers that rely on their ploughing skills to trap prey in shallow waters. With wings outstretched and feathers spread wide, they create a mesmerizing sight against a pristine white background. In this illustration-style photograph, we witness nature's artistry at play. The black plumage contrasts beautifully against the vibrant blue sky while showcasing intricate details like an open beak and raised wings. It is fascinating to observe how these animals hunt for crustaceans or other aquatic creatures in their natural habitat. Dorling Kindersley has masterfully captured this moment of avian prowess through their exceptional studio shot technique. This image serves as a testament to both indigenous culture and wildlife photography expertise without mentioning any commercial use intentions - truly making it a fine addition for any art enthusiast or nature lover's collection from Fine Art Storehouse
