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 exquisitely detailed hand-colored steel engraving showcases a serene and harmonious scene of nature, featuring the Yellow Lotus (Nelumbo lutea), White Water Lily (Nymphaea alba), and two species of leaf-footed bugs (Anisoscelis foliaceus and Anoplocnemis curvipes). The Yellow Lotus, also known as the Sacred Lotus or Indian Lotus, is depicted in full bloom, its vibrant yellow petals unfurled around a central disc. The White Water Lily floats gracefully on the still water's surface, its large, white flowers and broad, green leaves creating a striking contrast against the rich, blue background. Two intriguing leaf-footed bugs, Anisoscelis foliaceus and Anoplocnemis curvipes, can be seen on the lotus leaves. Leaf-footed bugs are known for their unique camouflage, with their hind legs resembling the texture and color of the leaves they inhabit. Anisoscelis foliaceus sports a green and brown body, while Anoplocnemis curvipes displays a more muted, brown and white coloration. This beautiful and intricate engraving was created by du Casse, based on an illustration by Adolph Fries for the "Picturesque Dictionary of Natural History," published in Paris between 1834 and 1839. The meticulous attention to detail and the vivid use of color make this a captivating representation of the natural world, transporting us to a peaceful moment in time.
