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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Merlin, also known as the Pigeon Hawk (Falco columbarius). The engraving was created by none other than John James Audubon himself for his iconic work, Birds of America, which was published between 1827 and 1838. The image captures the essence of this American falcon perched on a leafy vine-covered log. Its striking plumage is beautifully depicted with speckled patterns that adorn its body. With sharp talons gripping onto the perch, it exudes power and grace. Audubon's attention to detail in capturing the intricate features of this wild bird is truly remarkable. Every feather seems to come alive through his masterful engraving technique, allowing us to appreciate nature's artistry up close. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we are transported back in time to early America when Audubon dedicated his life to studying and documenting these avian wonders. His passion for ornithology shines through every stroke of his pen. Let this enchanting artwork serve as a reminder of our rich natural heritage and inspire us to protect and cherish these majestic creatures that grace our skies.
