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 the historical Marshall microscope, a groundbreaking instrument used for observing blood circulation. The intricate drawing depicts the microscope in all its scientific glory, with a fish delicately placed on the specimen stage. However, it also highlights a significant design flaw of this particular model - the absence of a mirror to deflect illumination. The Marshall microscope holds immense historical significance as it represents an important milestone in the field of microscopy. Developed during an era when scientific techniques and technology were rapidly evolving, this instrument played a crucial role in advancing our understanding of biological processes. Despite its design fault, which limited its ability to effectively illuminate specimens under observation, the Marshall microscope was undoubtedly instrumental in shaping early microscopic studies. It allowed scientists to delve into uncharted territories within biology and paved the way for future innovations in light microscopy. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of how far scientific instruments have come since then. Yet at the same time, we appreciate that every step forward is built upon those who came before us - their ingenuity and dedication laid the foundation for modern microscopes that continue to revolutionize our understanding of life's intricacies. In essence, this print serves as both a tribute to history and an inspiration for future generations of scientists seeking new frontiers through technological advancements.
