ABOUT THE IMAGE

Harbour seals, also known as common seals, are the smaller of the UK’s two seal species, though their name can be misleading - they’re not as common as you might think. In fact, current estimates give their numbers at 55,000 - a third of the number of grey seals around Britain’s shores. 

These charming creatures spend much of their time lounging on beaches, rocks, and sandbanks, but they’re also strong swimmers, often seen gliding through coastal waters. Each harbour seal has a unique pattern of spots on its coat, making it possible to tell individuals apart.

In British folklore, they were believed to be selkies - mythical creatures that could transform into humans. Today, their curious and playful nature makes them a much-loved symbol of coastal wildlife.

This solitary harbour seal lies amongst seaweed and rocks, looking right at the camera with what seems like a contented smile on its face. Its sleek, spotted coat and relaxed posture make it hard not to be charmed by this adorable creature. Whether it’s just finished a swim or simply soaking up the peaceful surroundings, this harbour seal perfectly embodies the calm beauty of UK wildlife.

Enhance your space with this cheerful seal in a wall art print, or enjoy its smiling face every day on a mug or greeting card!

Care Instructions

Handle with Clean, Dry Hands - Oils and dirt from your fingers can damage the surface. 
Avoid Direct Sunlight - Even with high-quality archival paper, prolonged UV exposure can cause fading over time.
Avoid areas with high humidity, such as bathrooms or kitchens, to prevent warping or discolouration. 
Glossy prints are more prone to fingerprints and scratches, so avoid unnecessary contact.

Cleaning:

Lustre: Dust Gently with a Soft Cloth - A clean, dry microfibre cloth can remove dust without scratching the surface. 
Gloss: Use an Anti-Static Brush for Dusting - Gloss prints attract more dust, so a soft brush helps maintain a clean surface. If smudges appear, use a slightly damp microfibre cloth and blot (don't rub!) to avoid scratching. 
Hahnemühle Photo Rag: Avoid wiping or using moisture. Gently remove dust with an air blower or a soft, dry brush to preserve the delicate texture.

Absolutely wonderful photo! I bought it for my grandson but my daughter loved it so much that we decided it would be a waste to put it on his bedroom wall. The quality and detail demands a place where everyone can see it. I would definitely recommend this to family and friends. Thank you for the quick delivery too!
