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 photo, we witness a remarkable moment in the hidden world of European nature. Meet the elusive Common Spadefoot, also known as Pelobates fuscus, as it emerges from its sandy sanctuary in Italy during a scorching July day. With its sleek and camouflaged body perfectly blending into the sandy soil, this adult amphibian has mastered the art of hiding. But today, it's time to bid farewell to its subterranean abode and embrace the summer sun! As if performing a magical act, our charming protagonist gracefully rises from beneath the surface. Its beady eyes gleam with excitement while tiny grains of sand cling to its moist skin. With each step forward, it leaves behind traces of an underground adventure that only few have witnessed. This fascinating creature belongs to both Asia and Europe - truly bridging continents with its burrowing abilities! As it emerges from its secret hole like an explorer discovering new lands, we can't help but marvel at nature's diversity. So next time you find yourself strolling along sandy shores or exploring wild landscapes across Southern Europe or Eurasia, keep your eyes peeled for these incredible spadefoots! They may be hidden beneath layers of sand but are always ready to emerge and remind us how wondrous our world truly is.
