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 awe-inspiring beauty of a whale shark seen from below in the crystal-clear waters of Cenderawasih Bay, West Papua, Indonesia. The magnificent creature glides effortlessly through the ocean depths, its massive body adorned with remoras clinging to its belly. In the background, a bagan and sunrays create a mesmerizing backdrop for this extraordinary encounter. The image perfectly captures the essence of animals in the wild, highlighting their natural habitat and showcasing their remarkable features. The vibrant colors and impeccable composition bring this underwater scene to life, immersing viewers into an enchanting world beneath the waves. Whale sharks are filter feeders and belong to the elasmobranch family. They play a vital role in marine ecology as they swim gracefully through oceans worldwide. This vulnerable species is known for its symbiotic relationship with remoras that hitchhike on its abdomen, benefiting from food scraps while providing cleaning services to their majestic host. Mathieu Meur's exceptional photography skills capture every detail of this incredible moment - from the intricate patterns on the shark's skin to sunlight filtering through water above. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of our responsibility to protect these threatened species and preserve their natural habitats.
