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.

Meet 'Metade' - The Mediterranean Monk Seal with a Larger-Than-Life Personality!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are introduced to the charismatic 'Metade, ' a magnificent male Mediterranean Monk Seal measuring an impressive 2.5 meters in length. With his striking presence and endearing expressions, it's no wonder he has become a local celebrity, identified by the Parque Natural da Madeira. Taken in August 2009 at the enchanting Desertas Islands in Madeira, Portugal, this snapshot perfectly captures Metade's underwater world. As one of Europe's endangered species, these seals hold great importance for marine conservation efforts. With their sleek bodies and playful nature, monk seals are known as pinnipeds - skilled swimmers that effortlessly navigate through the depths of the Mediterranean Sea. This portrait showcases not only their beauty but also highlights their vital role as vertebrates within our ecosystem. Photographed by Nuno Sa from Wild Wonders of Europe / Sa for Nature Picture Library, this image is a true gem that brings joy to all who admire it. So dive into Metade's world and let his larger-than-life personality leave you awestruck!
