Artwork of Mars Pathfinder after landing on Mars
Mars Pathfinder arrival at Mars. Third in a series of three artworks showing how the Mars Pathfinder craft will arrive at Mars in July 1997. Here the craft has opened its three petal-shaped doors, revealing the science package (gold) and the solar panels (blue). At bottom left is the autonomous small rover vehicle which has begun its exploration and study of the surface around the lander. In the distance is the landers parachute (white). Mars Pathfinder is due for launch in December 1996, and is intended to prove the concept of multipart, low-cost vehicles for repeated Mars exploration missions

31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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.
