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 print showcases the remarkable figure of Archimedes, a renowned Ancient Greek mathematician and inventor. Captured in 1866, this image portrays Archimedes standing firmly on Earth, symbolizing his profound connection to the natural world. Surrounding him are representations of the four Greek elements - earth, air, fire, and water - along with the dome of fixed stars above. This composition pays homage to Thales' concept of a flat earth floating on water. Archimedes is depicted as a distinguished man with a long beard, embodying wisdom and intellect. His occupation as a scientist is evident through his intense gaze and contemplative expression. Known for his significant contributions to mathematics and science during ancient Greece, Archimedes stands as an emblematic figure in history. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this nineteenth-century portrait while emphasizing its timeless appeal. This print serves as both an artistic representation of Archimedes' legacy and a historical artifact that transports us back to an era where great minds like his shaped our understanding of the world.
