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
In this photo print, we are transported back to the late 19th century, where we catch a glimpse of the renowned German bacteriologist and physician, Robert Koch. Standing proudly in his laboratory, surrounded by scientific instruments and glassware, Koch exudes an air of determination and intellectual curiosity. It was in this very laboratory that Koch made groundbreaking discoveries that would forever shape the field of medicine. In 1890, he introduced Tuberculin with high hopes of finding a cure for the devastating disease known as tuberculosis. However, despite initial optimism, its curative powers proved disappointing. Yet little did he know at the time that Tuberculin would later find value as a diagnostic tool. Koch's contributions to science were not overlooked or forgotten. In recognition of his remarkable achievements and significant advancements in bacteriology and medicine, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 1905. This prestigious accolade solidified his place among history's greatest scientists. This engraving from 1891 captures both the essence of Robert Koch's pioneering spirit and serves as a testament to his unwavering dedication to unraveling medical mysteries. It stands as a reminder of how one man's tireless pursuit can lead to profound breakthroughs that impact countless lives for generations to come.
