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 stunning handcoloured steel engraving depicts the Common Hedgehyssop, or Gratiola officinalis, also known as Gratiole. The image is based on a botanical illustration by Edouard Maubert, created for the comprehensive medical botanical work "La Regne Vegetal: Flore Medicale" published by Pierre Oscar Reveil, A. Dupuis, Fr. Gerard, and Francois Herincqs between 1864 and 1871. The Common Hedgehyssop, native to Europe, Asia, and North America, is a small, aromatic herb that grows in damp meadows and along the edges of streams. Its delicate, blue-purple flowers bloom in late spring and early summer, attracting various pollinators. The plant has a long history of traditional use in herbal medicine, particularly for treating respiratory issues, such as coughs and bronchitis, and as a diuretic. The intricate details of the plant are beautifully captured in this engraving, with each petal, vein, and leaf meticulously rendered. The vibrant colours further enhance the botanical accuracy and aesthetic appeal of the image. The Common Hedgehyssop's charming appearance and medicinal properties have made it a subject of interest for botanists, naturalists, and herbalists alike for centuries. This exquisite piece of botanical art serves as a testament to the rich history of plant exploration and documentation. It invites us to appreciate the intricacies of nature and the beauty of the natural world.
