Crinoid Fossil Fossil Invertebrate Fossils Palaeontology

31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame

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 a mesmerizing array of fossils from the ancient Ordovician period, which dates back an astonishing 500 to 435 million years ago. The assemblage is a mix of various intriguing specimens, including brachiopods and crinoids, providing us with a glimpse into the diverse marine life that once thrived in what is now known as Shropshire, UK. The intricate details preserved in these fossilized remains offer valuable insights into the fascinating world of animal paleontology. Brachiopods, characterized by their hinged shells resembling clams or mussels, were abundant during this era and played a significant role in shaping marine ecosystems. Crinoids, also known as sea lilies or feather stars, were delicate creatures related to starfish and sea urchins that flourished in ancient seas. Discovered within the Acton Scott series along the Onny river section in Shropshire, this remarkable find serves as a testament to Earth's rich geological history. These beautifully preserved fossilized invertebrates provide scientists with invaluable clues about past environments and evolutionary processes. Science Photo Library has expertly captured this stunning image for enthusiasts and researchers alike to marvel at nature's wonders. It reminds us of our planet's deep-rooted connections across time and offers endless opportunities for exploration and discovery within the realm of paleontology.
