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 print captures the breathtaking beauty of the foothills of the Andes mountains in the Atacama Desert, located in northern Chile. The vast expanse of this arid landscape is a testament to its reputation as one of the driest regions on Earth. Sparse and resilient vegetation, specially adapted to survive in such harsh conditions, dots the sandy terrain. The mighty Andes mountains stand tall and majestic in the background, their snow-capped peaks contrasting against the barren desert below. This juxtaposition creates a striking visual spectacle that showcases nature's ability to create diverse environments within close proximity. The Atacama Desert's unique geography offers an unparalleled opportunity for scientific exploration and discovery. Its extreme dryness has made it an ideal location for astronomical observatories, allowing scientists to study distant galaxies with unprecedented clarity. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of both the fragility and resilience of our planet's ecosystems. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly inhospitable environments like deserts, life finds a way to adapt and thrive. This stunning photograph from Science Photo Library invites us into a world where rugged mountain ranges meet unforgiving deserts – an awe-inspiring testament to Earth's natural wonders.
