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 stunning print captures the intricate beauty of a Cosmos flower in extraordinary detail. Taken using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), this coloured micrograph showcases the unique structure and nature of this plant. Belonging to the Compositae (Asteraceae) family, the head of the Cosmos flower is composed of numerous smaller flowers known as florets. This characteristic is beautifully depicted in this image, revealing how these individual florets come together to form a breathtaking composite. With a magnification level of x8 at 6x7cm size, every delicate feature and vibrant hue is brought to life. The reproductive anatomy and multiple florets are displayed with remarkable clarity, providing an insight into the complex process of reproduction within angiosperms. The mesmerizing details captured by SEM allow us to appreciate not only the aesthetic appeal but also gain deeper knowledge about floral structures and their functions. It serves as a reminder that even on such small scales, nature's intricacy never fails to amaze. This print from Science Photo Library invites us into the world of botany, where we can marvel at the wonders hidden within even seemingly ordinary flowers like Cosmos. Whether you have an interest in science or simply appreciate natural beauty, this image will undoubtedly leave you in awe.
