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 image is taken from Plate 7 of Henry Walter Bates' (1825-1892) illustrated notebooks, documenting his groundbreaking exploration of the insect fauna of the Amazon Valley during the mid-19th century. Bates, a British naturalist and explorer, embarked on his expedition between 1851 and 1854, making significant contributions to the understanding of Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), Diptera (flies), and other Hexapoda (six-legged invertebrates) in the region. The notebook pages, annotated with meticulous detail and scientific observations, are a testament to Bates' keen observational skills and dedication to the natural world. In this particular plate, we see a stunning array of butterflies and flies, their intricate wings and delicate forms captured in exquisite detail. The vibrant colors and precise illustrations showcase the extraordinary biodiversity of the Amazon rainforest, providing a window into a world that continues to inspire wonder and fascination. Bates' work, published in various scientific journals and books, revolutionized the understanding of the mechanisms behind the geographical distribution of species, leading to the formulation of the concept of "mimicry" in the animal kingdom. This image is a reminder of the importance of exploration and documentation in advancing scientific knowledge and appreciation for the natural world.
