Loch Ness monster, artwork
Loch Ness monster. Computer artwork of the Loch Ness Monster swimming on the surface of Loch Ness, Scotland. Sightings of the monster have occurred at least since the 15th century, with earlier stories dating to the 6th century, but scientific evidence for its existence is lacking. This depiction is based on Elasmosaurus, a species of plesiosaur (a prehistoric marine reptile). Sceptics have suggested that the sightings are of unstable masses of drifting peat. However, the monsters alleged existence continues to attract tourists, and the myth endures

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 showcases the legendary Loch Ness Monster gracefully swimming on the surface of Scotland's iconic Loch Ness. The artwork, created using computer graphics, is based on the Elasmosaurus, a prehistoric marine reptile known as a plesiosaur. While scientific evidence for the existence of this mythical creature remains elusive, sightings and stories of its presence have persisted since ancient times. Dating back to at least the 15th century, with even earlier tales from the 6th century, reports of encountering this enigmatic beast continue to intrigue both locals and tourists alike. Skeptics argue that these alleged sightings may be attributed to drifting peat masses in the water. Nevertheless, curiosity surrounding this mysterious creature has turned Loch Ness into a magnet for visitors from all over the world. The allure of this mythological creature lies not only in its potential existence but also in its ability to captivate our imagination. This mesmerizing illustration beautifully captures both the essence and grandeur associated with such an extraordinary being. As viewers gaze upon this image, they are transported into a realm where biology intertwines with legend and nature merges seamlessly with mythology. Science Photo Library presents us with an artistic depiction that pays homage to one of Europe's most enduring legends—the Loch Ness Monster—a symbol that continues to fascinate us through its mythical charm and untamed spirit.
