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
This exquisite sketch, titled Crataegus phaenopyrum or Washington Hawthorn, is an 18th-century illustration from the extensive collection of original drawings and sketches by the renowned botanical artist, Georg Dionysius Ehret (1708-1770). The drawing is held in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London. Crataegus phaenopyrum, also known as the Washington Hawthorn, is a flowering plant belonging to the Rosaceae family, specifically the subfamily Rosoideae and the genus Crataegus. Native to North America, this hawthorn species is characterized by its attractive, red berries and elegant, white flowers. Ehret's masterful depiction of the Washington Hawthorn showcases the intricate details of its floral structure, including the five petals, numerous stamens, and the distinctive red berries. The drawing also reveals the plant's simple, serrated leaves and the branching pattern of its stems. As a member of the Angiospermae, Eudicot, Magnoliophyta, Rosales, Eurosid, and Fabidae classes, Crataegus phaenopyrum is a valuable addition to the vast world of flowering plants. Ehret's meticulous illustration serves as a testament to the beauty and complexity of this North American native, providing a glimpse into the natural world of the 18th century.
