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
Captured in the crystal-clear waters of their tropical and temperate habitats, this enchanting photograph showcases the intimate bond between a Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) and its newborn calf. The adult dolphin, with its distinctive curved dorsal fin and sleek, gray body, gracefully swims alongside her young offspring, who eagerly follows in her wake. This mother-calf duo is a common sight in the shallow coastal waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans, where Bottlenose Dolphins are found worldwide, excluding polar regions. The history of these beloved marine mammals dates back to ancient civilizations, with evidence of their cultural significance found in art and literature. The Bottlenose Dolphin is known for its intelligence, social behavior, and playful demeanor, making it a favorite among marine enthusiasts. The calves, born after a gestation period of approximately 12 months, are dependent on their mothers for survival, nursing on their mother's milk for up to two years. This heartwarming image captures the happiness and joy of motherhood in the natural world, as the mother nurtures and protects her young calf. The close-up perspective allows us to appreciate the unique features of these fascinating creatures, from their smiling faces to their sleek, streamlined bodies. The underwater setting adds to the serene and peaceful atmosphere, making this photograph a true treasure for any wildlife or marine enthusiast.
