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.

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 hand-coloured botanical illustration depicts the yellow-flowered shrub, Berberis angulosa, native to the majestic Himalayan mountains. The illustration was meticulously drawn by the skilled hand of Matilda Smith and beautifully lithographed by J.N. Fitch for the prestigious Curtis's Botanical Magazine in 1889. Published by L. Reeve & Co, this illustration is a testament to the remarkable botanical discoveries made during the Victorian era. Berberis angulosa, also known as the Himalayan barberry, is a small shrub that thrives in the mountainous regions of the Himalayas. Its bright yellow flowers bloom in clusters, adding a splash of colour to the otherwise verdant landscape. The shrub is known for its medicinal properties, with the roots and bark being used to treat various ailments, including dysentery and diarrhoea. The intricate details of the illustration reveal the delicate structure of the shrub's leaves, flowers, and fruits. The careful shading and use of colour bring the plant to life, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and complexity. This historical illustration not only serves as a record of the natural world but also as a testament to the artistic and scientific achievements of the past. The Curtis's Botanical Magazine, founded in 1787, is the world's oldest botanical journal still in publication. Its pages have been graced with countless beautiful and accurate illustrations of plants from all corners of the globe, contributing significantly to the advancement of botanical knowledge. This illustration of Berberis angulosa is a prime example of the magazine's commitment to documenting the natural world in all its glory.
