Media ID 19237845
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
In this print captured by Cathal McNaughton, the aftermath of an ice storm in Derry, Northern Ireland is vividly depicted. The image showcases a child's toy duck partially buried under a blanket of hailstones. The scene evokes a sense of both wonder and melancholy as the innocent plaything becomes engulfed by the powerful forces of nature. The juxtaposition between the brightly colored duck and the icy landscape creates a striking contrast, highlighting the fragility of childhood innocence against harsh realities. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the destructive power that severe weather can unleash upon communities. As thousands of homes in Scotland and Northern Ireland were left without electricity due to damaged power lines, it underscores how vulnerable we are to Mother Nature's whims. Beyond its immediate impact on infrastructure, this image also prompts reflection on our relationship with nature and our responsibility towards protecting it for future generations. It reminds us that even seemingly insignificant objects like children's toys can bear witness to these environmental upheavals. Through his lens, Cathal McNaughton captures not only an isolated incident but also invites us to contemplate broader issues surrounding climate change and its consequences. This thought-provoking snapshot stands as a testament to both human resilience in face of adversity and our collective duty to safeguard our planet from further harm.
