Astronomer Edmund Mathematician Halley
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 black and white illustration portrays Edmund Halley, a renowned English astronomer and mathematician who lived from 1656 to 1742. The print is derived from the book "Old England's Worthies" by Lord Brougham and others, which was published in London around the 1880s. In this vertical portrait, Halley's intellectual prowess shines through his piercing gaze and distinguished features. His contribution to science cannot be overstated; he is best known for accurately predicting the return of a comet that now bears his name - Halley's Comet. The historical significance of this image transports us back to an era when scientific discoveries were made with sheer determination and limited resources. It serves as a reminder of the remarkable minds that paved the way for our understanding of the universe. Ken Welsh, the talented photographer behind this print, has masterfully captured both the essence of Halley's character and the vintage charm associated with photographs from that era. This piece would make an excellent addition to any collection celebrating scientific achievements or historical figures
