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
This print by Mathieu Meur showcases the haunting beauty of an airplane wreck resting on top of a vibrant reef in Cenderawasih Bay, West Papua, Indonesia. The once powerful aircraft now lies sunken and damaged, serving as an artificial reef for a plethora of marine life. The image captures the tragic history and destruction that led to this underwater scene. As soft coral and crinoids gracefully overgrow the wreckage, they create a mesmerizing contrast against the blue ocean backdrop. These delicate organisms, known as sea lilies or feather stars, add an ethereal touch to the composition. The photograph transports us to the depths of the Indo Pacific Ocean where nature has taken hold amidst human tragedy. It serves as a reminder of both our impact on the environment and its remarkable ability to regenerate even in such adverse conditions. Without any human presence in sight, this image highlights animals thriving in their natural habitat. It invites viewers to appreciate the wonders found outdoors and encourages them to protect these fragile ecosystems for future generations. Mathieu Meur's skillful photography brings forth not only stunning colors but also tells a story about transportation gone awry beneath tranquil waters. This thought-provoking piece is sure to captivate anyone with an appreciation for wildlife photography and those intrigued by tales hidden beneath the surface of our oceans.
