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.

1. Title: "William Smith's Groundbreaking Geological Map of Great Britain: A Treasured Legacy of Stratigraphic Discoveries" This image showcases a rare and historic print of the "Geological Map of England and Wales," created by the renowned English geologist William Smith between 1769 and 1839. Smith is considered a pioneer in the field of geology for his significant contributions to the understanding of rock strata and their relationships, a concept known as stratigraphy. The map, which covers much of Great Britain, is a testament to Smith's meticulous observations and dedication to unraveling the mysteries of the Earth's geological past. By carefully studying the various rock formations and their sequences, Smith was able to create one of the first comprehensive geological maps, providing an essential foundation for future geological research. The map's intricate details reveal the complex stratification of rocks across the landscape, with different colors representing various geological formations. This visual representation of the geological history of the region remains a valuable resource for scientists, students, and enthusiasts alike. Smith's groundbreaking work not only revolutionized the field of geology but also paved the way for the development of the geological survey and the modern science of geology. This print serves as a reminder of the rich history of geological discoveries and the enduring legacy of William Smith's pioneering work. The image captures the essence of a daytime scene, with the map spread out on a table outside, inviting exploration and study. The map's intricate details and the natural light filtering through the window create a sense of discovery and wonder, making this a truly treasured piece of European scientific history.
