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. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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
Clough-i-Stookan" is an exquisite watercolor drawing created by Andrew Nicholl in the year 1828. This piece of art depicts a picturesque scene from the Irish countryside, specifically the area around Clough-i-Stookan. The title of the work is believed to be derived from the Irish language, with "Clough" meaning a hollow or a glen, and "Stookan" possibly referring to a stream or a body of water. Andrew Nicholl, the artist, was born in 1804 and is known for his detailed and accurate depictions of the Irish landscape. His mastery of watercolor technique is evident in this piece, as he skillfully captures the play of light and shadow on the rolling hills, the gentle curves of the river, and the intricate details of the trees and foliage. The drawing is executed on paper and measures an impressive 17.5 x 25.5 centimeters. The vibrant greens of the grass and the rich browns of the trees and rocks are brought to life through Nicholl's expert use of color and shading. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the way he has rendered the textures of the water, the rocks, and the foliage, making the scene feel alive and real. This beautiful work of art offers a glimpse into the past, transporting the viewer to a time when the Irish countryside was still largely untouched by modern development. The serene beauty of the scene invites contemplation and reflection, making it a timeless treasure for anyone who appreciates the natural world and the artistry of the past. In conclusion, "Clough-i-Stookan" is a stunning watercolor drawing by Andrew Nicholl, created in 1828, that captures the essence of the Irish countryside. With its intricate details, vibrant colors, and masterful use of watercolor technique, this work of art is a must-see for anyone interested in Irish history, art, or the natural world.
