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 thought-provoking photo print, based on Leonardo da Vinci's iconic Vitruvian Man, delves into the controversial topic of organ harvesting. The image portrays a human body filled with an array of organs, serving as a powerful representation of our collective fears surrounding the potential consequences of genetically engineered individuals being used solely for their organs. It also alludes to the illicit trade in organs that sadly exists in some parts of the world. The artwork seamlessly combines elements from medicine, biology, and art to create a futuristic depiction that sparks both curiosity and concern. As we gaze upon this illustration, we are confronted with questions about ethics, healthcare practices, and the boundaries of scientific advancements. The concept behind this piece is not limited to mere imagination; it touches upon real-world issues such as genetic engineering and stem cell research. By exploring these themes through computer-generated imagery, it prompts us to contemplate the implications of genetic modification and transplantation in our society. While this artwork does not mention any specific company or commercial use, its purpose lies in stimulating dialogue rather than promoting any particular agenda. Through its striking visual language and evocative symbolism rooted in Leonardo da Vinci's legacy as an anatomist and artist extraordinaire, this image invites viewers to ponder the complex relationship between science, technology, humanity's well-being - ultimately challenging us to shape a future where ethical considerations always accompany progress.
