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.

Blackthorn, 1893 - A Botanical Masterpiece of the 19th Century
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This exquisite botanical illustration captures the beauty and intricacy of Prunus spinosa, commonly known as blackthorn. Created in 1893 as part of an atlas documenting the flora of France, this print showcases the meticulous artistry and scientific precision that defined botany in the 19th century. Every detail is meticulously rendered - from the delicate petals to the vibrant colors of its flowers and fruits. The artist's keen eye for accuracy is evident in capturing even the tiniest features such as leaves, stamens, and thorns. Each element is expertly depicted using various art media techniques that bring this stunning plant to life on paper. The blackthorn itself holds a significant place in nature with its unique combination of elegance and resilience. Its dark berries symbolize abundance while its sharp thorns serve as protection against predators. This image not only celebrates nature's diversity but also highlights humanity's fascination with understanding and preserving it through scientific exploration. As we admire this remarkable print today, we are transported back to a time when botanical illustrations were both works of art and valuable scientific records. It serves as a testament to our enduring curiosity about plants' inner workings while reminding us of their timeless beauty that continues to inspire us all these years later.
