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 from Science Photo Library showcases a mesmerizing GOES satellite image of our beloved planet Earth, revealing the stark contrast between day and night. Taken in 1998, this breathtaking snapshot captures the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean, which dominates the frame with its majestic blue hues. The image serves as a testament to the wonders of earth science, offering us a unique perspective on our home planet. From space, we witness how sunlight bathes one side of Earth while darkness blankets the other. The sharp division between light and shadow creates an awe-inspiring visual spectacle that reminds us of Earth's ceaseless rotation. As we gaze at this remarkable photograph, we are reminded of humanity's interconnectedness across continents and time zones. It prompts us to reflect on how different regions experience contrasting realities simultaneously – bustling cities immersed in daylight coexist with tranquil landscapes shrouded in nocturnal serenity. The GOES imagery employed here provides valuable insights into weather patterns and atmospheric conditions crucial for scientific research. Beyond its scientific significance, however, this print also invites contemplation about our place within the grand tapestry of existence. Science Photo Library has once again captured a momentous scene that encapsulates both beauty and knowledge. This stunning portrayal is not only visually striking but also evokes a sense of wonderment about our world's intricate dynamics – reminding us why exploration and discovery remain integral aspects of human nature.
