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
1. Title: A Majestic Date Palm Tree, Phoenix Dactylifera This exquisite handcoloured steel engraving depicts a Date Palm Tree, scientifically known as Phoenix dactylifera, or Dattier in French. The botanical illustration was meticulously created by Edouard Maubert and beautifully rendered in steel engraving by Oudet. This artwork is an essential part of the comprehensive botanical work, "La Regne Vegetal: Planetes Agricoles et Forestieres," published by Pierre Oscar Reveil, A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard, and Francois Herincqs between 1864 and 1871. The Date Palm Tree, a native of the Middle East and the North African region, is renowned for its tall, elegant trunk and fan-shaped leaves. The tree is a vital source of food and economic importance, producing the sweet and succulent fruit known as dates. The fruit, which grows in clusters, is encased in a protective layer called the "date stone," which contains the seed. The illustration showcases the tree's intricate details, from the delicate veins on its leaves to the textured bark on its trunk. The dates are depicted in various stages of maturity, providing a visual representation of the tree's growth cycle. The vibrant colours used in the handcolouring process bring the illustration to life, making it a stunning addition to any botanical collection. The Date Palm Tree has been an essential part of human civilization for thousands of years, with records of its cultivation dating back to ancient civilizations such as Egypt, Mesopotamia, and the Arabian Peninsula. Its versatility, both as a food source and a source of shelter and shade, has made it an iconic symbol of the desert landscapes where it thrives. This beautiful and intricately detailed engraving serves as a testament to the tree's enduring significance in both the natural world and human history.
