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 thermogram of a rhea, captured at the renowned London Zoo in the United Kingdom. The image provides a unique glimpse into the temperature distribution and anatomy of this flightless bird native to South America. The intricate details revealed by thermography highlight the heat stress experienced by different parts of the rhea's body. The vibrant colors depict variations in temperature, with cooler areas appearing as shades of blue and warmer regions radiating hues of red and orange. As we observe this captive rhea through its thermogram, we gain insight into how its feathers play a crucial role in regulating body heat. The non-insulating properties evident on the thermal image emphasize how these magnificent creatures adapt to their environment. Beyond its scientific significance, this photograph is also an artistic masterpiece that captures nature's beauty from an unconventional perspective. It serves as a reminder of our shared responsibility to protect and conserve wildlife worldwide. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an extraordinary visual representation that sparks curiosity and invites contemplation about our natural world. This remarkable piece exemplifies their commitment to delivering exceptional imagery while fostering appreciation for science and nature alike.
