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 print showcases the intricate beauty of the human eye, specifically focusing on the mesmerizing blue/brown iris. Enhanced by computer technology, this image highlights the remarkable details of this vital organ responsible for our sense of sight. The iris, a ring of muscle fibers encircling the pupil, plays a crucial role in regulating the amount of light that enters our eyes. The spherical shape of the eye is perfectly captured in this photograph, emphasizing its unique structure and function. As one gazes at this image, they are reminded of the incredible complexity and precision behind our vision. The iris contracts and relaxes to adjust the size of the pupil - represented here as a striking black center - allowing just enough light to pass through. In ophthalmology and physiology alike, understanding these muscle fibers within our eyeballs is essential for comprehending how we perceive colors and shapes. This false-colored representation not only adds an artistic touch but also aids researchers in studying various aspects related to visual perception. Science Photo Library has masterfully immortalized this single sensory organ with their expertise in capturing scientific wonders. Without delving into commercial use or mentioning any specific company affiliations, let us appreciate this extraordinary photograph that brings forth both scientific knowledge and aesthetic pleasure simultaneously.
