Description
Unlike today's elephant, the woolly mammoth had small ears,which reduced the loss of body heat in frigid climates. Images of the mammoth are preserved in the cave paintings in southern France.  The first mammoth carcass found by modern human beings was discovered in 1799, embedded in the frozen bank of Siberia's Lena River.

Production
This fine art print is created using high-quality paper and printing to produce a vivid and detailed reproduction.

Pronounced "jhee-clay", gicleé is an inkjet printing method from a large format printer. It merges the use of eight pigment inks that are fade resistant and archival.

We use all quality materials when framing your artwork. We start by drymounting your image to foam board so the print won't have any waves or creases. After the drymount process we lay plexi-glass that is 1/8" thick on top of the art then secure it into the frame. To finish the framed piece we tape a dust cover on the back.

Our environmentally friendly frames are made here in the United States.
