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 exquisite hand-colored stipple engraving depicts the Common Hoptree, Ptelea trifoliata, also known as the Stinking Ash or Wafer Ash. Created by the skilled hands of Mixelle laine, this engraving is a beautiful representation of an illustration by the renowned botanical artist Pierre-Joseph Redoute, as published in Henri Louis Duhamel du Monceau's comprehensive work, "Traité des Arbres et Arbustes," published in Paris between 1804 and 1819. The Common Hoptree is a deciduous shrub or small tree native to Europe, Asia, and North America. It is characterized by its trifoliate leaves, which are composed of three oval to oblong leaflets, each with a serrated margin. The plant produces small, yellow or white flowers in clusters, followed by round, brown or red fruits. The Common Hoptree derives its common name "stinking ash" from its unpleasant odor, which is released when the leaves are crushed. The name "wafer ash" may refer to the thin, wafer-like texture of the bark. This stunning engraving captures the intricate details of the Common Hoptree's leaves, flowers, and fruits, providing a glimpse into the natural beauty of this fascinating plant. The use of hand-coloring adds an additional layer of depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a true work of art. Whether used as a decorative piece in a botanical garden or as a reminder of the natural world's intricacies, this Common Hoptree engraving is a must-have for any botanical enthusiast or collector.
