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 print, we witness the charismatic charm of a Hooded Merganser adult male. With its crest raised high and feathers glistening in the winter sun, this handsome drake effortlessly glides through the tranquil waters of Pensthorpe's wetlands. The vibrant colors of his plumage reflect the beauty of North American wildlife, reminding us why nature reserves like Pensthorpe are crucial for preserving such treasures. As he gracefully swims, it's as if he's performing an aquatic ballet just for our amusement. With its distinctive hood-like crest and striking patterns, this merganser steals the show with his undeniable charisma. His presence brings joy to all who encounter him – whether they be avid birdwatchers or casual visitors seeking solace in nature's embrace. As we gaze upon this delightful scene captured by FLPA photographer Paul Sawer, we can't help but imagine what stories lie behind those curious eyes. Perhaps he is searching for a mate or simply enjoying a leisurely swim on a crisp February day. No matter the reason behind his spirited display, one thing is certain: this enchanting image serves as a reminder that even in captivity (for educational purposes only), these magnificent creatures continue to inspire awe and wonderment among all who appreciate their natural splendor.
