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 showcases a plate from Johann Remmelin's renowned work, Pinax Microcosmographicus. Dating back to 1667, this extraordinary piece of art delves into the intricate details of human anatomy. The image captures the dissected organs of both male and female bodies, providing a fascinating insight into our inner workings. In this particular plate, we witness two naked figures standing side by side - one representing a man and the other a woman. Their exposed forms serve as a testament to the vulnerability and complexity of our physical existence. A heavenly angel hovers above them, symbolizing the ethereal nature of life itself. Henry Guttmann's expert photography beautifully captures every minute detail in this historical artwork. The careful composition allows us to appreciate not only the scientific significance but also the artistic value that lies within these dissections. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of how far medical knowledge has progressed since Remmelin's time. It serves as an homage to those early pioneers who dedicated their lives to unraveling the mysteries hidden beneath our skin. This photograph is more than just an illustration; it represents centuries' worth of healthcare advancements and ongoing exploration into human anatomy. Through its visual storytelling, it invites us to contemplate our own mortality while marveling at the intricacies that make us uniquely human.
