Horsehead (IC434) and Flame (NGC2024) Nebulae

from $4.00

Professor Edward Charles Pickering, whom ran the Harvard College Observatory, frustrated with his male assistants, proclaimed his maid could do a better job, and in 1879 hired Williamina Fleming to join the observatory. Fleming went on to create new star cataloging methods, became proficient in processing photographic plates, and in 1888 discovered a region of Hydrogen-rich gas, aptly named the Horsehead Nebula. This dark, dusty cloud forms a familiar silhouette against the glowing, gaseous emission nebula. Just next door, the Flame Nebula adds dramatic movement to the scene. Presented in dual narrowband (HOO).

Matted, ready to frame.

Not sure which paper type to choose?

Metallic Luster: satin to semi-gloss finish; dark tones artfully balanced with color-rich, shimmering metallic highlights. Excellent choice for accentuating vibrant nebulae. particularly with a starless backdrop. Most popular option.

Smooth Pearl: satin finish; ultrafine pearlescence draws the eye in, adding an alluring tone across the composition. Stellar choice for rich starfields, galaxies, reflection nebulae, and deepscapes.

Bright Luster: satin-luster finish; pure white archival-grade base for a traditional, gallery-ready piece of art. Bright spaces and naturally-lit walls make great homes for this print, best suited for bright environments. Solid pick for every composition.

Metallic Gloss: high-gloss finish; colors shine, with excellent contrast against smooth dark tones. Great accent piece for any desk or bookshelf.
