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.

Trash or Treasure? This Asian Water Monitor knows how to make the most of a rubbish dump feast in Sri Lanka! 🦎🗑️
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the resourcefulness and adaptability of an adult Kabaragoya, also known as an Asian Water Monitor. Against the backdrop of a tropical island, this reptile showcases its unique feeding habits by scavenging on a pile of waste in December. With its sleek scales glistening under the warm sun, our scaly friend fearlessly navigates through the trash heap like it's a gourmet buffet. As nature's very own garbage disposal unit, this monitor lizard effortlessly forages for food amidst discarded items and leftovers. While some may see only chaos and mess in this scene, our Kabaragoya sees opportunity and sustenance. With every bite it takes from this unconventional meal, it reminds us that one creature's trash can indeed be another creature's treasure! This incredible snapshot captured by FLPA/Neil Bowman invites us to appreciate the resilience and adaptability of wildlife even in unexpected environments. So next time you encounter your own "rubbish dump" remember that there might just be hidden treasures waiting to be discovered - just like our adventurous Asian Water Monitor!
