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 color plate, titled "Blue Jay, Corvus Cristatus," is an exquisite work of art by the renowned naturalist and painter, John James Audubon. Created between 1827 and 1838, this plate is part of Audubon's masterpiece, "The Birds of America," which comprises 435 life-size illustrations of North American birds, produced from original drawings. Audubon, an American artist and naturalist, was passionate about documenting the natural history of his country, and his work remains a testament to the rich flora and fauna of the 1820s and 1830s. In this plate, we see a vibrant and distinctive Blue Jay, with its electric blue plumage, white underparts, and black collar. The male and female are depicted side by side, showcasing their subtle differences. The Blue Jay is a common bird found in North America, and it is known for its distinctive crest, white markings around the eyes, and the ability to mimic various sounds. In the image, the Blue Jay is shown in its natural habitat, near water, with a broken eggshell and a yolk in its beak. This depiction highlights the Blue Jay's omnivorous diet, which includes a variety of foods, including eggs and nuts. The intricate details in this color plate are a result of Audubon's meticulous approach to his work. He is known to have made numerous sketches and studies in the field before creating his final pieces. The result is a stunning and accurate representation of the Blue Jay, which continues to captivate viewers with its beauty and historical significance.
