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
This watercolor and ink illustration, titled "Caterpillars & Pupa," is a stunning example of the naturalistic artistry of Margaret Elizabeth Fountaine (1862-1940). Created in 1909, this work of art is held in the Library and Archives and showcases the enthralling metamorphosis of caterpillars into pupae, a crucial stage in the life cycle of Lepidoptera, or butterflies and moths. Fountaine, a talented female artist, expertly captures the intricate details of the hexapods (six-legged invertebrates) in their various stages of development. The illustration features a vibrant array of caterpillars, each displaying unique textures and patterns, as they transform into pupae, encased in protective cocoons. The delicate interplay of watercolor and ink brings the arthropods to life, highlighting their intricate exoskeletons and the subtle nuances of their forms. This illustration not only serves as a testament to Fountaine's artistic prowess but also offers a captivating glimpse into the natural world, showcasing the beauty and intrigue of the Lepidoptera order. As a prominent figure in the world of entomology and natural history illustration, Fountaine's work continues to inspire and educate, providing a historical record of the natural world and the artistic techniques of the past. This exquisite illustration of caterpillars and pupa is a must-see for anyone with an appreciation for the art of nature, the wonders of the insect kingdom, and the remarkable work of women artists throughout history.
