Biology Creatures Found Including Living Sperm Things Thought Animalcules Dunghill
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 fascinating print from Mary Evans Picture Library captures a moment in late 18th century science, when the concept of animalcules was at the forefront of biological discovery. At this time, it was believed that all living things - even sperm and tiny creatures found in dunghill water - were considered to be their own unique creatures, known as animalcules. This historical image provides a glimpse into the early understanding of biology and the diversity of life forms that were being explored during this period.
The intricate details captured in this print showcase the little animals or beasties that were thought to exist within various substances such as water and waste. The scientific exploration of these microscopic organisms sheds light on the curiosity and innovation that drove researchers to uncover new aspects of living beings.
As we reflect on this image, we are reminded of the importance of historical context in shaping our current understanding of biology and evolution. The work depicted here serves as a reminder of how far we have come in our knowledge of living organisms, while also highlighting the continuous pursuit for discovery and enlightenment in the field of science.
