23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 Universal Images Group (UIG) showcases the remarkable invention of Emil Berliner's Gramophone, an iconic piece of audio history. The image is divided into two distinct parts, each capturing a crucial aspect of this groundbreaking device. At the top, we see the intricate recording stylus and mouthpiece, which were instrumental in capturing sound and translating it onto a disc. These delicate components represent the meticulous craftsmanship behind Berliner's creation, allowing for precise sound reproduction that revolutionized the way music was experienced. In contrast, at the bottom of the image, we witness a moment frozen in time as a disc spins on the gramophone. This engraving published in Paris 1888 captures not only an early instance of recorded sound but also serves as a testament to Berliner's ingenuity. The presence of lampblack traces on the disc hints at how these recordings were made using carbon-based materials to etch grooves onto its surface. Emil Berliner's Gramophone forever changed our relationship with music by enabling us to listen to recorded sounds whenever we desired. This print invites us to appreciate both its mechanical intricacies and historical significance - reminding us that every note played on this instrument carries echoes from over a century ago.
