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 handcoloured steel engraving depicts Danube steppe cattle, Bos taurus var. dacicus, a traditional Hungarian domestic breed native to the Danube-Tisza interfluve region in Europe. The Danube steppe cattle are believed to have originated from ancient Asian cattle that were domesticated around 4000 BC. They were well adapted to the harsh climate and grazing conditions of the Danube-Tisza steppe, making them an essential source of food and livelihood for local communities. The image is part of Georg Friedrich Treitschke's Gallery of Natural History, Naturhistorischer Bildersaal des Thierreiches, published in Leipzig in 1842. Treitschke was a renowned German naturalist and zoologist who dedicated his career to documenting and preserving the natural world. His gallery was a significant contribution to the scientific community, showcasing a wide range of animals from various parts of the world. The Danube steppe cattle are characterized by their robust build, long horns, and distinctive coat pattern, which includes a dark stripe down the spine and lighter patches on the legs and underbelly. They were traditionally used for draft work, milk production, and meat production. The breed is now considered rare, with efforts underway to preserve and promote its conservation. This engraving provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique characteristics of the Danube steppe cattle and the natural history of the region. It is a testament to the rich cultural and biological heritage of Europe and the importance of preserving it for future generations.
