17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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.

Exploring the Depths - Halley's Diving Bell and Early Underwater Adventures
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from the Hulton Archive, we are transported back to the late 17th century, witnessing a groundbreaking invention that forever changed our understanding of underwater exploration. Pictured in the top left corner is English physicist Edmond Halley himself, alongside three similar contraptions he designed circa 1690. The image showcases Halley's ingenious creation - an early diving bell - which allowed brave individuals to venture into the mysterious depths below. The diving bell, resembling a large barrel with a tube extending above water level, provided a safe haven for intrepid explorers seeking to unravel the secrets hidden beneath the waves. As we gaze at this remarkable piece of history frozen in time, it becomes evident that these pioneers were driven by an insatiable curiosity about what lay beneath. Their determination led them to embark on daring expeditions into uncharted territories where few had ventured before. This photograph serves as a reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and discovery. It captures both the excitement and trepidation felt by those who dared to enter this new realm. The four figures inside one such diving bell symbolize their shared courage and camaraderie as they embarked on their underwater odyssey. Let this image transport you back centuries ago when innovation knew no bounds and dive deep into your own imagination as you contemplate what wonders may have awaited these early adventurers in their submerged world.
