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
1. Title: "A Delightful Depiction of Ranunculus: A Pink and Red Buttercup from George Brookshaw's Full Directions for the Young Artist (1817)" This exquisite illustration showcases the enchanting beauty of a Ranunculus sp. buttercup, as rendered in the pages of George Brookshaw's Full Directions for the Young Artist, published in 1817. Housed in the esteemed Botany Library at the Natural History Museum in London, this watercolour painting is a captivating testament to the botanical illustration techniques of the early 19th century. The Ranunculus, a member of the Ranunculaceae family, is a popular flowering plant known for its vibrant, showy blooms. In this illustration, we are treated to the sight of a pink and red buttercup, its petals unfurled in an inviting display. The delicate, intricately detailed rendering of the flower's veins and stamens reveals the artist's mastery of the medium, while the contrasting hues of pink and red add depth and allure. As an angiosperm, dicot, and eudicot, the Ranunculus is a significant member of the Magnoliophyta division, which includes flowering plants. The Ranunculales order and Eudicotinae subclass further classify this plant within the broader context of botanical taxonomy. George Brookshaw, the talented artist behind this illustration, expertly captured the essence of the Ranunculus in this stunning watercolour painting. His work continues to inspire and delight botanists, artists, and nature enthusiasts alike, offering a glimpse into the rich natural world of the past. This illustration serves as a reminder of the beauty and intricacy of the natural world, as well as the enduring power of artistic expression.
