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.

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 photo print, titled "Battle of the frog and the mouse" takes us back to a fable-filled world in 1665. Created by renowned print makers Dirk Stoop and John Ogilby, this artwork brings to life an epic clash between two unlikely adversaries - frogs and mice. The battlefield is set, with both armies fiercely engaged in combat. The fearless frogs ride into battle on the backs of lobsters, showcasing their resourcefulness and determination. However, they are not alone in their struggle against the mice; a cunning fox joins forces with them as they face off against their rodent foes. In this chaotic scene, predatory birds like hawks circle above, eyeing potential targets for their next meal. The illustration skillfully captures the intensity of the conflict as each side fights for survival. The artist's attention to detail is evident throughout this masterpiece. From every stroke of ink that depicts the intricate armor worn by these tiny warriors to the expressions of fear or bravery etched onto their faces – it all adds depth and emotion to this timeless tale. Through this print, we are reminded of Aesop's fables which teach valuable lessons through animal characters. As we gaze upon this historic image created centuries ago by Dirk Stoop and John Ogilby, we can't help but be absorbed into its narrative – a story that continues to resonate even today.
