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 poignant print captures the devastating consequences of water pollution on aquatic life. Taken in 1990 along the banks of the River Volga in Russia, it depicts a heart-wrenching scene of poisoned fish floating lifelessly on the water's surface. The image serves as a stark reminder of the detrimental impact human activities can have on our environment. The once vibrant and thriving ecosystem has been marred by industrial waste and toxic substances that infiltrate these waters. This snapshot freezes a moment in time, forever documenting the tragic aftermath of unchecked pollution. Each motionless fish represents not only an individual life lost but also symbolizes an entire delicate web of interconnected species disrupted by human negligence. The photograph speaks volumes about the urgent need for environmental conservation and responsible practices to safeguard our precious natural resources. It serves as a visual testament to raise awareness about water pollution's far-reaching consequences, urging viewers to reflect upon their own actions and advocate for change. As we gaze upon this haunting image captured by Science Photo Library, let us be reminded that every drop counts when it comes to protecting our rivers, lakes, and oceans from further harm. Together, we must strive towards sustainable solutions that ensure cleaner waters for future generations to come.
