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 stunning vintage print captures the elegant beauty of the Long-Finned Grey or Golden Mullet, scientifically known as Liza aurata or Orcynopsis unicolor. Dating back to the 1860s, this image offers a fascinating glimpse into the natural world of the Victorian era. The Long-Finned Grey Mullet is a member of the Mugilidae family, also known as the mullets or grey mullets, which are characterized by their long, slender bodies and long, adipose fins. The Long-Finned Grey Mullet is found in the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans, as well as in the Mediterranean Sea. They are known for their distinctive coloration, which ranges from greenish to orange to pink, with golden or silver scales along their sides. This image showcases the fish's vibrant colors and intricate patterns, which are particularly striking against the muted tones of the background. The Long-Finned Grey Mullet is an important species in various marine ecosystems, serving as both predators and prey. They feed on plankton, small crustaceans, and other marine organisms, while larger fish and humans may prey on them. This print offers a window into the rich biodiversity of the ocean during a time when exploration and discovery were at the forefront of scientific inquiry. The intricate details of the print, from the delicate scales to the realistic depiction of the fish's gills, attest to the skill of the artist and the advanced techniques of the time. This historical image is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable record of the natural world, reminding us of the importance of preserving and protecting marine biodiversity for future generations.
