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.

Nature's Kaleidoscope - A Vibrant Symphony of Colors in Bolivia's Andes
EDITORS COMMENTS
. Behold the breathtaking beauty of Chacaltaya, where nature paints a mesmerizing masterpiece! This print captures the enchanting sight of colourful lakes nestled below the majestic peak. But there's more to this picture-perfect scene than meets the eye. As you gaze upon these shimmering waters, it becomes evident that something extraordinary is at play. The once crystal-clear lake has been transformed into a kaleidoscope of hues, thanks to mine effluent flowing from nearby mining operations. Mother Nature herself seems to have dipped her brush into an artist's palette and splashed vibrant shades of green, orange, and red across this aquatic canvas. High up in the Andes mountains, amidst rocky terrain and towering peaks, lies this hidden gem. Here on this hilly slope, surrounded by Bolivia's stunning altiplano landscape, we witness both the wonders and consequences of human activity intertwining with natural beauty. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder that even in remote corners of our planet like Chacaltaya, no place remains untouched by our actions. It urges us to reflect on how our choices impact fragile ecosystems worldwide while marveling at nature's resilience in adapting to adversity. So let your imagination soar as you immerse yourself in this vivid tapestry – a testament to Earth’s boundless creativity and a call for all humanity to cherish and protect its irreplaceable treasures.
