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
A Historical Moment of Introspection: Polar Bears by the Receding Arctic Pool, a Watercolor Masterpiece by Raymond Sheppard This evocative watercolor painting by renowned artist Raymond Sheppard captures a poignant moment in the Arctic wilderness. The image features two polar bears standing on a narrow ice shelf, gazing into a pool of clear, melted water. The scene is a stark reminder of the historical and ongoing impact of climate change on the Arctic ecosystem. The painting's vibrant colors and intricate details bring the Arctic landscape to life, with the icy blues of the water and the snowy whites of the bears' coats contrasting beautifully against the muted greens and browns of the surrounding tundra. The bears, with their powerful builds and expressive eyes, exude a sense of quiet contemplation, as if reflecting on the changing world around them. The pool of water in the foreground, revealed by the receding ice, adds a sense of urgency to the scene. This body of water is a rare sight in the Arctic, as the ice typically covers the entire surface during the colder months. However, as global temperatures continue to rise, the Arctic ice is melting at an unprecedented rate, leading to the loss of critical habitat for polar bears and other Arctic species. Raymond Sheppard's masterful depiction of this historical moment not only showcases the beauty of the Arctic but also serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of preserving this fragile ecosystem for future generations. This painting is a testament to the artist's keen observation skills and his ability to capture the essence of nature in all its complexity and splendor.
