‘The Absolute Unit’ mug – white

Did you know the term ‘absolute unit’, now commonly used to describe any oversized and handsome animal, originated in a tweet from The MERL in 2018?

The simple caption ‘look at this absolute unit’ alongside a photograph of an Exmoor horn ram belonging to G.F. Thorne, a farmer from Simonsbath in Somerset shot both the ram and our small University museum in Reading, UK to fame across the twitterverse and beyond.

Product Information

 

Images are printed to order on high quality photographic paper using the latest digital technology. Images can be ordered in either matt, semi-gloss or gloss finish.

If you intend to frame your print behind glass, then we recommend that you select the semi-gloss or matt finish so that you get less light reflection from the print/glass.

The images in our collection, although kept to the highest possible standards, can sometimes display irregularities. These may have been caused during their original printing, or through damage that has occurred before coming to RIBA. In some cases therefore, these may be visible on your photographic reproduction.

Please note that because the original images available come in all shapes and sizes, and will never be cropped or distorted, different images will have different borders. When you order a product, the product choice screen will give you an approximate portrayal of how the image will fit on different print sizes.
