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 handcolored botanical print showcases three fascinating plants: the Lesser Throatwort, Ivy-leaved, and Corn Violet Bellflower. Originally depicted in Joshua Hamilton's "Culpeper's English Family Physician; or Medical Herbal, Enlarged, with Several Hundred Additional Plants, Principally from Sir John Hill," published in London by W. Locke in 1792, this copperplate engraving offers a detailed and accurate representation of these natural wonders. The Lesser Throatwort (Lathraea clandestina) is a parasitic plant, with a distinctive heart-shaped leaf and tubular, violet-blue flowers. Its name derives from its ability to parasitize the roots of other plants, drawing nutrients from them. The Ivy-leaved Corn Violet (Viola hederacea) is a small, herbaceous plant with heart-shaped, green leaves and violet flowers. It is commonly found in woodlands and meadows, and is known for its ability to grow epiphytically on other plants. The Corn Violet Bellflower (Omphalodes verna) is a low-growing, herbaceous plant with bell-shaped, blue or purple flowers and narrow, lanceolate leaves. It is native to Europe and Asia and is often found in open, grassy areas. These beautiful and intricately detailed botanical illustrations serve not only as works of art, but also as valuable records of the natural world. They provide insight into the plants' morphology, as well as their medicinal and cultural uses. Hamilton's "Culpeper's English Family Physician" was a popular and influential herbal, and this print is a testament to the importance of botanical knowledge during the late 18th century.
