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.

Yawn and Bear It - A Leopard Seal's Tale of Antarctic Drama
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In the icy depths of Antarctica, a seasoned Leopard Seal takes center stage in this photo. With its mouth wide open in an impressive yawn, it reveals not only its formidable teeth but also a deep wound on its head. This battle-scarred warrior bears the marks of an intense encounter with another member of its kind. As snow gently falls around them, we witness nature's raw power unfolding along the coastal shores. These fierce predators engage in intraspecific fights for territory and dominance, leaving behind wounds that tell tales of their epic battles. Despite the injury, our resilient protagonist seems unfazed as it showcases both strength and vulnerability simultaneously. Its sleek body glistens against the backdrop of Antarctica's breathtaking landscape, reminding us why these magnificent creatures are perfectly adapted to thrive in such harsh conditions. This snapshot offers a rare glimpse into the secret lives of marine mammals that call this frozen wilderness home. From pinnipeds to predators, every aspect of wildlife unfolds before our eyes through FLPA/James Lowen's lens. So let this image serve as a reminder that even amidst adversity and conflict, life finds a way to endure – whether it be through jaw-dropping yawns or battles fought tooth and nail on snowy coastlines.
