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.

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-colored copperplate engraving, taken from Rene Primevere's "Lessons Complements de Buffon," showcases two fascinating birds native to Malaysia: the White-crested Laughingthrush (Garrulax leucolophus belangeri) and the Malaysian Rail-babbler (Eupetes macrocerus). The White-crested Laughingthrush, also known as Belanger's Laughingthrush, is a medium-sized bird with a distinctive white crest on its head. Its plumage is mainly grayish-brown, with a black mask around its eyes and a bright orange-red bill. This bird is a resident of the forests of Southeast Asia, particularly in the Malay Peninsula and Sumatra. The Malaysian Rail-babbler, on the other hand, is a small, brownish-gray bird with a short, thick bill and long, yellow legs. It is named for its distinctive call, which sounds like a babbling brook. This bird is a resident of the lowland forests and grasslands of Malaysia and Sumatra. Both birds are depicted in their natural habitat, with the White-crested Laughingthrush perched on a tree branch and the Malaysian Rail-babbler standing on the ground. The intricate details of their feathers and the lush foliage in the background are beautifully rendered in this engraving, which is a testament to the skill of the engraver. Rene Primevere's "Lessons Complements de Buffon" was a popular natural history publication in the 19th century, featuring high-quality illustrations of various animals and plants. This particular engraving is a valuable addition to any collection of ornithological or zoological illustrations, providing a glimpse into the natural history of Malaysia and the beautiful birds that inhabit it.
