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 stunning hand-colored aquatint print, Plate 164 from John James Audubon's seminal work "Birds of America" (1831-34), showcases the Veery, Catharus fuscescens, a small, cryptic bird belonging to the thrush family. The Veery is depicted perched on a branch, surrounded by a lush, floral backdrop of Cornus canadensis, or Bunchberry, a flowering plant from the Cornales order and the Cornaceae family. The Veery's intricately detailed plumage is beautifully rendered in shades of brown and gray, while the vibrant red berries of the Bunchberry add a splash of color to the scene. The Veery is an eudicot, a type of angiosperm, and is part of the Asterid clade. This means that it is a flowering plant with two embryonic seed leaves, or cotyledons, and its flowers have both stamens and pistils. The Veery is an important food source for various wildlife, including bears, and is known for its distinctive, melodic song, which can be heard during the daytime hours. The Veery's habitat includes deciduous and mixed forests, and it is often found near water. The Bunchberry, on the other hand, is a common understory plant in the northern hemisphere, and its berries are an important food source for many animals, including birds, bears, and moose. This exquisite print, engraved, printed, and hand-colored by R. Havell & Son in London, is a testament to the natural beauty and intricacy of the natural world, as captured by one of the greatest naturalists of all time, John James Audubon.
