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
This print from Science Photo Library offers a unique perspective on the intricate details of human hair. Through the lens of a scanning electron microscope (SEM), we are able to witness the aftermath of four days without washing, as this dirty strand becomes speckled with flakes of skin and dirt. The false-color technique applied to this SEM image enhances our understanding of its composition, revealing an array of vibrant hues that highlight different elements present within the hair. The significance of maintaining proper hygiene is evident in this image, as it showcases how neglecting regular cleansing can lead to accumulation and visible debris on our bodies. By comparing this unwashed hair with another photograph depicting clean hair after shampooing, viewers gain a deeper appreciation for the impact cleanliness has on our overall appearance. At a magnification level of X 34 at 35mm size, every minuscule detail is brought into focus, allowing us to marvel at the complexity found within even something as seemingly simple as a single strand of hair. This print serves not only as an educational tool for studying anatomy but also as a reminder that our bodies require attention and care in order to maintain optimal health. Science Photo Library continues to provide thought-provoking visuals like these that bridge the gap between science and artistry. Their dedication to capturing moments such as these allows us all to appreciate both the beauty and intricacy inherent in everyday aspects of life.
