Antarctic Antarctic Research Exploration Relaxing
23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness a rare moment of respite for an Antarctic research team amidst their grueling expedition. The image showcases a group of dedicated scientists from the British Antarctic Survey, taking a well-deserved break outside their tent. Nestled within the icy expanse of Antarctica's Rutford Ice Stream, these intrepid explorers have called this frozen wilderness home for three arduous months. As they relax in the pristine white surroundings, one cannot help but marvel at the sheer remoteness and isolation that envelops them. Situated 500 miles away from any semblance of civilization or support base, these glaciologists embody true resilience and determination in their pursuit of scientific knowledge. The photograph not only captures the essence of exploration and research but also serves as a poignant reminder of our planet's fragile environment. It prompts us to reflect on the immense challenges faced by those who dedicate themselves to understanding Earth's most extreme regions. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an awe-inspiring glimpse into humanity's relentless quest for knowledge about our world. Through this image, we are transported to Antarctica – a realm where nature reigns supreme and where courageous individuals push boundaries in order to unravel its mysteries.
