Antarctic Antarctica Exploration Glacier Ice Berg Polar Scott Sledge
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 breathtaking photograph captures the awe-inspiring sight of the Barne Glacier, as viewed by the members of the Scott Polar Expedition in 1913. The image was taken as the Terra Nova, led by the legendary explorer Robert Falcon Scott, arrived at McMurdo Sound in Antarctica. The vast cliff of ice looms large in the foreground, its icy surface reflecting the clear blue waters of the sound. The expedition team, including Scott himself, can be seen in the background, making their way across the icy terrain on their sledges. The Barne Glacier, named after the Norwegian explorer Carl Anton Larsen, is a testament to the raw power and beauty of Antarctica's natural wonders. The iceberg in the distance adds an additional layer of majesty to the scene, highlighting the vast expanse of ice that covers the continent. The Scott Polar Expedition, which took place between 1910 and 1912, was one of the most significant polar expeditions in history. Its primary goal was to reach the South Pole, a feat that Scott and his team ultimately achieved on January 17, 1912. However, they tragically perished on their return journey, making this photograph all the more poignant. This photograph is a reminder of the incredible feats of exploration and discovery that have shaped our understanding of the world, as well as the awe-inspiring beauty of the natural world itself. The Barne Glacier stands as a testament to the power and majesty of Antarctica, and this image captures its essence in a way that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
