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.

Unlocking the Secrets of Time - A Jurassic Disco Ball!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this mesmerizing close-up shot, photographer John Cancalosi takes us on a prehistoric journey to France's ancient shores. Behold the magnificent CAN-107, an ammonite fossil that has been pyritized over millions of years. But wait! What makes this fossil truly extraordinary is how pyrite – nature's own glittery gold – has replaced minerals within its delicate shell. Imagine stepping into a time machine and finding yourself at the most epic disco party in history! These pyritized ammonites would be the ultimate dance floor divas, sparkling and shimmering under colorful lights. Their intricate patterns resemble dazzling sequins adorning their shells, as if they were ready to boogie down with their fellow Jurassic creatures. As we marvel at this incredible snapshot from Earth's past, it reminds us that even fossils can have some serious style. Who knew these ancient mollusks had such a flair for fashion? So next time you're feeling nostalgic for those groovy times long gone by, just gaze upon CAN-107 and let its radiant beauty transport you back to an era when dinosaurs roamed and disco ruled supreme!
