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.

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 watercolour painting, titled "Mourne Mountains from Terilla - where the Great Britain Stranded (1864)" by James Moore, offers a breathtaking view of the Mourne Mountains in County Down, Northern Ireland. The scene is depicted from Terilla, a vantage point that showcases the dramatic beauty and rugged terrain of the mountains. The painting captures the essence of the Irish landscape with its lush greenery, rolling hills, and the majestic Mourne Mountains standing tall in the distance. The title of the painting refers to a historical event that took place in 1864 when the British Navy ship, HMS Great Britain, ran aground near the shores of the Mourne Mountains. The ship was carrying a valuable cargo of silver and gold, and the incident caused a significant stir in the local community. The wreckage of the ship remained visible for many years, and it became a popular tourist attraction. James Moore, the artist, expertly captures the mood and atmosphere of the scene with his skillful use of watercolour and paper. The painting is a testament to the natural beauty of the Mourne Mountains and the historical significance of the area. The intricate details in the painting, from the textures of the rocks and foliage to the reflections on the water, transport the viewer to the heart of the Irish countryside. This painting is an exquisite example of Victorian-era watercolour art and a must-have for anyone with an appreciation for Irish landscapes, art history, or maritime history. The painting is a reminder of the power of nature and the enduring allure of the past.
