23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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 image dates back to the Victorian era, showcasing the intriguing Cyclopterus lumpus, or Lumpfish, also known by various other names such as Lumpsucker, Sea Owl, Paddlefish, and Cockpaddle. The Lumpfish is a unique and fascinating marine species native to the North Atlantic Ocean. With its distinctive round body and large, paddle-like fins, this pink, orange, and blue-hued fish is a sight to behold. The Lumpfish is an ancient species, with fossil records dating back over 100 million years. This photograph, taken in 1863, captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back to a time when the natural world was still a source of wonder and discovery. The Lumpfish's expressive eyes seem to gaze intently out of the frame, inviting us to explore the depths of the ocean and learn more about the diverse array of creatures that inhabit its waters. Despite their quirky appearance, Lumpfish play an important role in the marine ecosystem. They are often found in large schools and are an important food source for larger predators. Additionally, they are known for their ability to breathe air through their skin, allowing them to survive in oxygen-poor waters. This historical photograph is a testament to the beauty and intrigue of the natural world, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and protecting the marine environment for future generations to enjoy. The Lumpfish, with its unique adaptations and rich history, continues to captivate and inspire us, reminding us of the wonders that lie beneath the waves.
