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 showcases the incredible symbiotic relationship between an African forest buffalo and yellow-billed oxpeckers in Parc de la Lekedi, Gabon. The majestic buffalo stands tall with its flanks adorned by these tiny birds, creating a mesmerizing scene amidst the lush greenery of the African forest. The African forest buffalo, known scientifically as Syncerus caffer nanus, exudes power and strength as it confidently walks through its natural habitat. Its dark coat contrasts beautifully against the vibrant colors of the surrounding flora. Meanwhile, the yellow-billed oxpeckers (Buphagus africanus) cling to its sides, serving as both companions and caretakers. These small birds play a vital role in maintaining the health of their larger companion. As they perch on the buffalo's back or cling to its flanks, they diligently pick off parasites such as ticks and fleas from its skin. This mutually beneficial relationship is a remarkable example of nature's harmonious balance. Parc de la Lekedi in Haut-Ogooue offers a unique opportunity for wildlife enthusiasts to witness such extraordinary interactions up close. With no one else present in this photograph, it captures an intimate moment between these fascinating creatures. Mick Baines & Maren Reichelt have skillfully captured this enchanting scene through their lens, showcasing not only the beauty of Africa's diverse fauna but also highlighting nature's intricate connections that exist within it.
