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 intricate details of osteoarthritic knee cartilage, as seen under a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image captures the rough and colored surface of the damaged joint, providing a visual representation of this debilitating disease. Osteoarthritis is a common medical condition characterized by the degeneration and damage of cartilage in joints. In this SEM micrograph, we can observe how the once smooth and healthy knee cartilage has become roughened, fibrillated, and degenerated over time. The formation of clefts further emphasizes the extent to which arthritis affects joint health. The significance of this image lies not only in its aesthetic appeal but also in its contribution to medical research. By studying these microscopic features, scientists gain valuable insights into the progression and mechanisms behind osteoarthritis. This knowledge fuels advancements in medicine aimed at developing effective treatments for individuals suffering from this disorder. As we delve into the complexities of human health care, images like these serve as powerful tools for education and understanding. They remind us that diseases such as osteoarthritis have tangible manifestations within our bodies – reminding us to prioritize our well-being while inspiring researchers to find innovative solutions for those affected by such conditions.
