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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the mysterious world of alchemy. The image showcases an array of intricate tools and apparatus used by chemists and alchemists during the Middle Ages. As we gaze at this snapshot, we are transported to a dimly lit laboratory where ancient secrets were sought after. The photograph captures the essence of scientific exploration with its depiction of various furnaces and equipment meticulously arranged on wooden shelves. Each item tells a story of relentless experimentation, as these alchemists tirelessly pursued their quest for knowledge and discovery. The attention to detail in this engraving, dating back to circa 1850, is truly remarkable. It allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in creating these instruments that were once considered cutting-edge technology. From delicate glassware to intricately designed metalwork, every piece serves a specific purpose within the realm of alchemy. Although devoid of human presence, this image exudes an air of anticipation - as if waiting for skilled hands to bring life into these dormant objects once again. It reminds us that science is not only about facts but also about curiosity and imagination. As we admire this timeless artwork from Hulton Archive's collection, let it serve as a reminder that even though our understanding has evolved over centuries, there is still much wonder left in uncovering nature's mysteries through scientific exploration.
