31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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
Bath Time For Marjorie The Elephant: Straight between the eyes and loving it. That is Marjorie, a playful 7-year-old elephant at Chessington Zoo, captured in this delightful print from June 1970. As her dedicated keeper stands beside her, he mischievously aims a two-gallon bucket of water straight at Marjorie's face, creating a moment filled with joy and laughter. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the unique bond between humans and animals as Marjorie embraces the refreshing shower with open arms - or rather, an open trunk! Her eyes twinkle with delight as she revels in the coolness of the water splashing against her wrinkled skin. It's evident that bath time is not just about cleanliness for Marjorie; it's also an opportunity for playfulness and connection. This image captures the essence of grooming rituals among elephants – a necessary practice to maintain their hygiene and well-being. However, what truly sets this photograph apart is its ability to evoke humor through such a simple act. The sheer innocence on both Marjorie's face and her keeper’s expression brings smiles to our faces even decades later. As we gaze upon this charming scene from Chessington Zoo during the 1970s era, let us be reminded of how precious these moments are – when humans interact with nature’s magnificent creatures in ways that bring happiness to all involved.
