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 thought-provoking print captures the devastating effects of anorexia nervosa on a young woman's abdomen. The image serves as a stark reminder of the psychological disorder that compels individuals to intentionally starve themselves, resulting in rapid weight loss and severe malnutrition. Without proper treatment, this condition can lead to starvation and even death. The photograph highlights the importance of counseling, therapy, and antidepressant drugs in combating anorexia nervosa. These interventions are crucial for helping patients regain their physical health while addressing the underlying emotional turmoil associated with this illness. In this striking portrayal, we witness the fragility of youth and its vulnerability to societal pressures surrounding body image. The model's slender figure represents not beauty but rather a perilous state of unwellness caused by extreme dieting. As we gaze upon this poignant snapshot, it prompts us to reflect on our own perceptions of beauty and society's role in perpetuating harmful standards. It reminds us that behind every individual struggling with an eating disorder lies a complex emotional state deserving compassion and understanding. This powerful print from Science Photo Library is not just about capturing an aesthetic moment; it serves as a visual catalyst for raising awareness about anorexia nervosa—a medical condition that affects countless lives worldwide.
