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
This print showcases the sooty tern, a stunning bird species featured in John James Audubon's renowned book "The Birds of America" published between 1827 and 1838. Audubon, a prominent ornithologist and artist, dedicated his life to studying and illustrating North American birds with exceptional detail and accuracy. In this particular artwork, Audubon masterfully captures the essence of the sooty tern through intricate copper engravings combined with vibrant watercolor techniques. The result is a visually striking representation that highlights every feather and nuance of this elegant creature. Displayed within a private collection, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an invaluable scientific resource. It stands as a testament to Audubon's passion for preserving avian biodiversity while also providing viewers with an opportunity to appreciate the beauty found in nature. With its distinctive black plumage contrasting against its white underparts, the sooty tern exudes gracefulness as it glides effortlessly across open oceans. Known for its long migrations spanning thousands of miles each year, this bird symbolizes freedom and resilience in its ability to navigate vast distances. As we admire this remarkable image captured by Audubon over two centuries ago, let us be reminded of our responsibility to protect these magnificent creatures for future generations. Through artistry like his own, we can continue to foster appreciation for wildlife while promoting conservation efforts worldwide.
