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
Caught in the Crimson Tide: A Tragic Tale of a Dragonfly's Misadventure". In this snapshot, we witness the unfortunate demise of a vibrant Libellula dragonfly amidst the treacherous waters of Spain's infamous Ro Tinto, or Red River. The river, notorious for its acidic and deeply red hue caused by iron contamination from nearby Riotinto mines, presents an eerie backdrop to this tragic scene. As our eyes are drawn to the lifeless body of this once graceful insect, we can't help but ponder the severe environmental problems plaguing Huelva. The dragonfly's vivid orange wings stand out against the polluted water, serving as a stark reminder of nature's struggle against human-induced pollution. This photograph encapsulates both beauty and sorrow - showcasing Europe's diverse insect population while shedding light on the detrimental effects of mineral extraction. It serves as a poignant reminder that even seemingly insignificant creatures like dragonflies fall victim to mankind's disregard for our planet. Let us reflect upon this image not only as a testament to nature’s resilience but also as a call to action. May it inspire us all to protect our rivers and preserve biodiversity so that future generations may witness these enchanting odontata soaring through clear blue skies rather than succumbing to toxic waters.
