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.

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 title page from "De humani corporis fabrica" by Andreas Vesalius, dating back to approximately 1543. The image belongs to a private collection and represents an extraordinary blend of allegory, literature, and artistry. Andreas Vesalius, a prominent figure in the history of medicine during the Renaissance era, is depicted as a physician attending to a patient in this woodcut masterpiece. The intricate details and fine craftsmanship exemplify the graphic arts of that time. The print transports us back to Italy where Vesalius revolutionized medical knowledge through his groundbreaking anatomical studies. His meticulous dissections challenged traditional beliefs and paved the way for modern medicine. Intriguingly, mythology intertwines with science on this title page; it features Jan Stephan van Calcar's interpretation of Apollo flanked by two Muses representing poetry and history. This fusion symbolizes how art can complement scientific exploration. As we delve into this piece further, we are reminded of the importance placed on treating sickness during that period. It serves as a testament to both Vesalius' dedication as a doctor and his contribution towards advancing medical practices. Overall, this print not only captures an iconic moment in medical history but also offers us glimpses into the artistic brilliance of Renaissance Venetian school while showcasing one man's quest for understanding the human body - Andreas Vesalius.
