17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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 showcases the exquisite artistry of Johann Michael Seligmann, who skillfully recreated George Edwards' masterpiece, "Grus Americana". The hand-colored etching on laid paper beautifully captures the essence of this majestic bird. With its long neck gracefully extended and wings spread wide, the Grus Americana exudes a sense of grandeur and majesty. The print is part of the esteemed collection owned by Dr. and Mrs. George B. Green, who have carefully preserved this remarkable piece of historical artwork. Its vintage charm takes us back to a time when traditional techniques like aquatint were used to create stunning visual representations. Dating back to 1878 but inspired by an original work from 1829, this print carries with it a rich history that spans centuries. It evokes feelings of nostalgia as we imagine how people in earlier times marveled at such intricate details captured on paper. With influences from renowned artists like Audubon and Havell, Seligmann's talent shines through in every stroke and color choice. This retro-styled piece transports us into a world where nature was celebrated through artistic expression. As we gaze upon this aged yet timeless artwork, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage for future generations to appreciate. The hand-colored etching serves as a testament to both artistic mastery and our fascination with nature's wonders—a true gem within historic art collections worldwide.
