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
This exquisite line engraving captures the beauty and intricacy of a Brown Thrasher, a species known for its melodious song and striking appearance. Created by Alexander Wilson in the early 19th century as part of his renowned work "American Ornithology" this print showcases Wilson's meticulous attention to detail and passion for capturing the essence of American birds. The Brown Thrasher, scientifically named Toxostoma rufum, is depicted perched on a branch, its feathers meticulously etched to reveal intricate patterns and textures. The engraving beautifully portrays the bird's distinctive reddish-brown plumage with streaks of darker brown, complemented by its long tail and slender beak. Wilson's contribution to zoology and ornithology cannot be overstated. His comprehensive study documented numerous avian species found across America during that time period. Through his engravings like this one, he not only provided an invaluable resource for scientists but also allowed art enthusiasts to appreciate the natural world through his artistic lens. This particular print from Granger Art on Demand serves as a testament to both Wilson's skill as an artist and biologist. It offers viewers a glimpse into early 19th-century biology while showcasing the timeless beauty of nature itself. Whether displayed in homes or educational institutions, this artwork invites us all to marvel at the wonders of our feathered friends that grace North America's landscapes.
