FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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.

1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: The Laetoli Homo Sapiens Skull - A Testament to Human Evolution 2.. This image showcases a fragmented skull, believed to be from a Homo sapiens individual, discovered at Laetoli, Tanzania. Dated approximately 3.6 million years ago, this ancient relic is now proudly housed at the Natural History Museum in London, United Kingdom. The skull's intricate details reveal the complex structure of the human cranium, with distinct features such as the prominent forehead, large braincase, and the unique shape of the jaw, which sets Homo sapiens apart from other hominids. The teeth, though fragmented, exhibit the characteristic molar structure and size, indicative of an omnivorous diet. The discovery of this skull at Laetoli, a site rich in hominid fossils, provides valuable insights into the early stages of human evolution. It is a poignant reminder of our shared ancestry and the rich prehistoric heritage that connects us all. The Natural History Museum in London, a repository of knowledge and wonder, preserves this precious fragment of history, allowing us to explore the intricacies of our past and deepen our understanding of the human race. This image offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of paleontology and prehistory, inviting us to reflect on the incredible journey of Homo sapiens from the African savannah to the modern world.
