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
Plate 21 from the John Reeves Collection of Entomological Drawings from Canton, China, showcases a captivating scene of a Camellia plant in full bloom, surrounded by a mesmerizing array of butterflies. This exquisite illustration, created in the late 18th or early 19th century, offers a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of China during the Qing Dynasty. The Camellia plant, a member of the Ericaceae family and the order Ericales, is an angiosperm, or flowering plant, native to Asia. The plant's elegant, glossy leaves and vibrant, often red, flowers have made it a popular ornamental plant in many parts of the world. The butterflies gracing the Camellia in this illustration belong to the order Lepidoptera, a group of insects characterized by their winged adults. The diversity of butterflies depicted in Plate 21 is a testament to the incredible variety of Lepidoptera found in China. Some of the butterflies can be identified as members of the Asterid clade, a large assemblage of flowering plants, and the Camellieae tribe, which includes the Camellia plant. The intricate details in this drawing reveal the meticulous work of the entomological artist, John Reeves, who captured the delicate forms and patterns of both the Camellia and the butterflies with remarkable accuracy. The interplay of color, form, and texture in this illustration highlights the beauty and complexity of the natural world, offering a window into the past and a reminder of the importance of preserving biodiversity for future generations.
