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.

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.

This vintage print showcases the magnificent ship of renowned explorer James Cook, known as "Discovery". Crafted from a hand-colored woodcut based on a drawing by E. W. Cook, R. A. , this illustration takes us back to the 1700s when maritime expeditions were at their peak. The ship's traditional design and historic significance make it an emblem of British naval heritage. As we delve into history through this artwork, we are transported to an era of exploration and adventure. Captain James Cook, an esteemed English explorer, commanded this vessel during his groundbreaking voyages across uncharted waters.
