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 image is taken from Curtis's British Entomology, Plate 596, featuring the stunning Hymenopteran species, Stenocera walkeri, also known as Stenoceroides walkeri. The intricately detailed illustration, created between 1824 and 1839, was produced during the 19th century by the skilled hand of John Fleming, FLS. The Hymenopteran order, to which Stenocera walkeri belongs, includes ants, bees, wasps, and sawflies. The Stenocera species are characterized by their metallic sheen and slender bodies. In this particular illustration, the insect's iridescent green wings are spread wide, revealing the intricate patterns on its thorax and abdomen. The plant depicted in the background is Rosa x hibernica, also known as the Belfast Rose. This beautiful rose, native to Northern Ireland, adds a touch of natural elegance to the image. The combination of the vibrant rose and the delicate, shimmering wings of the Stenocera walkeri creates a harmonious balance between the floral and the insect world. Curtis's British Entomology was a significant publication during the 1800s, documenting a wide range of insect species found in Britain. This plate, in particular, showcases the exquisite detail and accuracy that was achieved through the meticulous work of the illustrators and natural historians of the time. The image remains an impressive testament to the natural history of the British Isles and the dedication of those who documented it.
