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.

Sun-kissed Beauties - Swallowtail Butterflies Soak Up the Russian Rays!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this enchanting snapshot captured by renowned photographer Tom Schandy, we witness a mesmerizing moment in nature's theater. A group of vibrant Swallowtail butterflies, known scientifically as Papilio machaon, bask lazily on a sun-drenched riverbank in Arkhyz section of the Teberdinsky biosphere reserve, nestled within the majestic Caucasus region of Russia. These delicate winged creatures seem to have mastered the art of relaxation as they spread their intricate wings and soak up every bit of warmth from the summer sun. With their striking patterns and vivid colors, these European wonders effortlessly steal our attention. Not only are these fluttering insects a sight to behold but they also possess an ingenious survival strategy called thermoregulation. By strategically positioning themselves under the gentle rays of sunlight, they can raise their body temperature and maintain optimal flying conditions. As we marvel at this scene frozen in time, let us take a moment to appreciate Mother Nature's artistic prowess. The harmonious blend of vibrant hues against lush greenery creates an awe-inspiring masterpiece that reminds us why preserving our precious ecosystems is vital for future generations. So next time you find yourself yearning for some sunshine therapy or seeking inspiration from nature's beauty – just remember these radiant Swallowtail butterflies gracefully embracing life on that picturesque riverbank in Arkhyz.
