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 print showcases a microscopic view of a louse, taken from the renowned "Encyclopedie" by Diderot et d'Alembert in the 18th century. The intricate engraving, created by the French School during this period, is now housed in the Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France. The image provides an extraordinary glimpse into the world unseen to the naked eye. Through meticulous observation and artistic skill, Leonard de Selva captures every minute detail of this minuscule creature. The delicate lines and shading bring out its unique features with astonishing clarity. The louse itself becomes a subject of fascination as we witness its complex anatomy and structure under magnification. Its tiny legs, segmented body, and antennae are all meticulously rendered with precision and accuracy. This visual representation not only serves as a scientific record but also highlights the beauty that can be found even in seemingly insignificant organisms. As we contemplate this artwork from centuries ago, it reminds us of humanity's insatiable curiosity about nature's wonders. It speaks to our innate desire to explore and understand even the smallest aspects of our world. This remarkable piece invites us to appreciate both artistry and science while marveling at the interconnectedness of all living things.
