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
In this print from December 1997, we are transported to the Gorilla cage of Howletts Zoo, where a fearless figure stands amidst the magnificent creatures. The man in focus is none other than John Aspinall, the renowned zoo owner and wildlife enthusiast. Known for his unconventional approach to animal care, Aspinall firmly believed in establishing a deep connection with all his animals by venturing into their enclosures. This particular moment captured by photographer Mike Moore showcases Aspinall's unwavering dedication and fearlessness towards his beloved gorillas. It is worth noting that these very cages had witnessed tragic incidents involving tiger attacks on zookeepers before. However, undeterred by such risks, Aspinall chose to forge an unbreakable bond with every creature under his care. The image exudes both awe and admiration as we witness this extraordinary interaction between man and beast. It serves as a testament to John Aspinall's profound love for wildlife and his relentless pursuit of understanding these majestic beings up close. As we delve into this nostalgic glimpse of the 1990s era, let us be reminded of the remarkable individuals like John Aspinall who dedicated their lives to preserving our planet's diverse fauna.
