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 striking photograph, taken in the year 1857, captures the majestic beauty of a Picea grandis, or Silver Fir tree, native to the northwestern regions of America. The image was likely taken on the slopes of Mount Shasta, a prominent landmark in California, where this particular species of fir is notably found in abundance. The Silver Fir is the largest and most widely distributed fir species in North America, with its range extending from British Columbia to California and as far south as New Mexico. This evergreen tree is characterized by its silvery-blue needles, which are long and slender, and its cones, which are large and conical in shape. The history of the Silver Fir in North America dates back to prehistoric times, with evidence of its use by indigenous peoples for food, shelter, and medicinal purposes. The tree was also an important resource for early European settlers, who used its timber for construction and fuel. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the natural world as it existed over 160 years ago. The Silver Fir stands tall and proud against a backdrop of rugged terrain and clear blue skies, a testament to the resilience and beauty of nature. The image also serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our natural resources for future generations to enjoy and appreciate.
