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.

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 a promotional card for Poulain chocolate from around 1910. The color lithograph features the renowned figure of Galileo Galilei, an Italian physicist, mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher. The illustration depicts a pivotal moment in history - Galileo's trial by the Inquisition before the members of the Holy Office in the Vatican. Charged with heresy for his belief in the Copernican system, Galileo stands defiantly as he faces this grave accusation. His signature adds a personal touch to this vintage card that serves as both an advertisement and a collectible item. The image evokes curiosity and fascination with its portrayal of one of history's most influential scientists. It highlights not only Galileo's contributions to astronomy but also his enduring legacy as a natural philosopher. The inclusion of Poulain chocolate branding on this promotional card seamlessly merges science and indulgence. This clever marketing strategy captures attention while subtly associating intellectual pursuits with pleasure. With its intricate details and vibrant colors rendered through chromolithography, this piece is not just an advertisement; it is a work of art that reflects the intersection between science, culture, and commerce during early 20th-century France. Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into both scientific history and advertising techniques from over a century ago – reminding us how even great minds like Galileo can become part of popular culture through creative means.
