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 Nigel Hicks from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported to the breathtaking scenery of Kenya's Rift Valley, specifically Lake Naivasha. The image showcases a majestic hippopotamus gracefully navigating through the lake, which is beautifully covered with vibrant water hyacinths. The hippo, standing tall and proud in its natural habitat, gazes directly at the camera with an intense focus that seems to pierce through the lens. Its dark eyes reflect both curiosity and tranquility as it confidently surveys its surroundings. The lush greenery surrounding the lake creates a picturesque backdrop for this incredible moment frozen in time. The differential focus employed by Hicks draws our attention solely to this magnificent creature, emphasizing its presence amidst nature's splendor. This photograph perfectly encapsulates the essence of wildlife photography - capturing animals in their untamed environment without any human interference or intervention. It serves as a reminder of the beauty and diversity found within our planet's ecosystems. Hicks' skillful composition transports us into this serene scene where we can almost feel ourselves walking alongside this gentle giant immersed in crystal-clear waters. This remarkable image is not only visually stunning but also evokes a sense of wonder and appreciation for Kenya's rich biodiversity.
