Hunting Squirrel Throwing Coursing Diry Format
23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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
In this print titled "Squirrel Hunting" we are transported back to the year 1799, where a group of gentlemen engage in an unconventional hunting method. The engraving by Howitt captures a unique moment frozen in time, showcasing the camaraderie and adventurous spirit of these men. Amidst a picturesque landscape, the scene unfolds with great energy and excitement. The group of gentlemen, accompanied by their loyal canine companion, gather around a majestic tree as they prepare for their peculiar hunt. Instead of traditional firearms or traps, they opt for an unorthodox approach - throwing sticks at squirrels perched on branches above. The image portrays both determination and amusement on the faces of these hunters as they aim carefully at their elusive targets. Their coordinated efforts create an atmosphere filled with laughter and friendly competition. Meanwhile, the agile squirrels display remarkable agility as they attempt to evade the incoming projectiles.
