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 showcases the intricate beauty of a water flea, captured through a light micrograph. The water flea, belonging to the suborder Cladocera, is a fascinating freshwater crustacean that thrives in aquatic environments. In this image, we can observe its long antennae on both sides, adorned with swimming hairs that serve as rowing organs. These delicate appendages enable the water flea to produce a jerky swimming movement as it navigates through its watery habitat. The dark field illumination technique used in this micrograph adds an ethereal quality to the image, enhancing our appreciation for the intricacies of nature. As we delve into zoology and explore wild life from different angles, images like these remind us of the incredible diversity found within our planet's ecosystems. This particular photograph sheds light on the biology and behavior of this tiny invertebrate species thriving in fresh water bodies. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an extraordinary glimpse into the microscopic world by capturing this stunning moment frozen in time. Let yourself be captivated by this mesmerizing print that encapsulates both artistry and scientific exploration.
