Artwork of pteranodon sternbergi
Pteranodon (meaning winged and toothless ) was one of the largest known pterosaurs, or flying reptiles, with a wing span of more than 6 metres (20 ft). It lived in North America at the end of the Cretaceous period, but vanished along with all other pterosaurs, the dinosaurs and other animals some 65 million years ago. Two species of Pteranodon are recognised, differentiated only in the shape of the crest on the skull. The crest of P. sternbergi, shown here, was more upright compared to that of the other species, P. longiceps. Both species were carnivorous, probably feeding mostly on fish

31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 artwork showcases the majestic Pteranodon sternbergi, a remarkable creature that once soared through the prehistoric skies. With its wings spread wide, this pterosaur boasted an impressive wing span of over 6 meters, making it one of the largest known flying reptiles to have ever existed. Belonging to the late Cretaceous period in North America, Pteranodon sternbergi was unfortunately wiped out along with all other pterosaurs and dinosaurs some 65 million years ago. However, thanks to stunning illustrations like this one by MARK GARLICK, we can still marvel at their existence today. In this particular print, attention is drawn to the distinct crest on P. sternbergi's skull. Compared to its counterpart species P. longiceps, this crest stands more upright and serves as a unique feature that sets them apart from each other. As carnivorous creatures, these magnificent beings likely relied heavily on a diet consisting mainly of fish. Although no longer present in our world today, their legacy lives on through paleontological discoveries and artistic interpretations such as this breathtaking computer-generated image. Whether you are a lover of paleontology or simply captivated by ancient life forms, this artwork offers a glimpse into the awe-inspiring world of Pteranodon sternbergi—a true testament to Earth's rich history and diverse inhabitants throughout time.
