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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork titled "Earth, Day and Night" showcases the beauty of our planet from a unique perspective. The computer-generated image portrays Earth divided into two distinct parts - day and night. At the top, we see the northern hemisphere with Africa prominently displayed on the right side, bathed in sunlight. The lush green vegetation contrasts with arid yellow regions, while blue represents water bodies and white signifies clouds floating above. In stark contrast, at the center of the image lies darkness covering most of North and South America. However, scattered city lights illuminate areas densely populated by humans. This mesmerizing display highlights how human activity shapes our world even during nighttime. The intricate details captured in this illustration allow us to appreciate both the vastness and interconnectedness of our planet's ecosystems. From space, we witness continents like Africa stretching across vast distances while being surrounded by immense oceans such as the Atlantic and Pacific. As we gaze upon this stunning piece of art created by Science Photo Library, it reminds us of Earth's delicate balance between light and darkness—a constant reminder that life thrives under diverse conditions across our magnificent planet.
