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-coloured copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of Jarrinha, or Aristolochia fimbriata, also known as Fringed Aristolochia or Ciliosa. The image is taken from Benjamin Maund and the Reverend John Stevens Henslow's renowned botanical publication, "The Botanist," published in London in 1836. The illustration was meticulously created by the skilled hand of Miss Sara Maund. Aristolochia fimbriata is a fascinating and intriguing plant, native to Central and South America. Its unique features are on full display in this engraving, with its distinctive bell-shaped flowers boasting a vibrant, rich purple hue and fringed, ciliate margins. The plant's twisting, tendril-like stems are also evident, demonstrating its ability to climb and support itself using these specialized structures. The Victorian era was a time of great fascination with the natural world, and botanical illustrations such as this one played a crucial role in documenting and preserving the beauty and diversity of plants. This particular engraving is a testament to the skill and artistry of the time, with its intricate details and vibrant colours bringing the Jarrinha to life. As a collector or enthusiast of botanical art, this engraving would make a stunning addition to any collection or display. Its historical significance and artistic merit make it a valuable and captivating piece, transporting us back to a time when the wonders of the natural world were a source of endless fascination and inspiration.
