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 captures three renowned astronomers of the late 19th century, John Russell Hind, Hermann Goldschmidt, and Robert Luther. The image showcases their significant contributions to the field of astronomy and commemorates their joint efforts in discovering planetoids or minor planets. From left to right, we see John Russell Hind, an English astronomer who made remarkable discoveries by identifying 11 planetoids throughout his career. Next is Hermann Goldschmidt, a German painter turned astronomer who played a pivotal role in finding 14 planetoids between 1852 and 1861. Lastly, Karl Theodor Robert Luther stands tall as a distinguished German astronomer whose work greatly contributed to our understanding of celestial objects. The photograph not only highlights these exceptional individuals but also symbolizes the collaborative nature of scientific exploration during this era. Their profiles exude determination and passion for unraveling the mysteries of space. Displayed alongside them is a medal crafted to honor their groundbreaking achievements. This commemorative piece serves as a testament to their dedication and impact on the field of astronomy. Through this vivid portrait captured by Hermann Goldschmidt himself or an unknown creator from around c1900, we are transported back in time to witness the faces behind some of history's most important astronomical discoveries.
