In het uitgebreide panorama van de kunstgeschiedenis onderscheiden bepaalde werken zich door hun vermogen om de essentie van de natuur vast te leggen. "De landkikker Rana" van Mark Catesby is een van die creaties die, door haar schoonheid en realisme, ons uitnodigt om onder te dompelen in een universum waar wetenschap en kunst samenkomen. Dit werk, dat deel uitmaakt van de eerste naturalistische illustraties, getuigt van een tijd waarin de verkenning van de natuurlijke wereld zowel een wetenschappelijke als artistieke zoektocht was. Bij het bekijken van deze kunstdruk word je meegenomen naar de hart van moerassen en rivieren waar deze fascinerende wezens leven, en wordt de rijkdom van de biodiversiteit die ons omringt onthuld. Stijl en uniekheid van het werk De stijl van Catesby wordt gekenmerkt door een oog voor detail en een bijna wetenschappelijke benadering van de voorstelling van dieren en planten. In "De landkikker Rana" wordt elk element zorgvuldig bestudeerd en met opmerkelijke precisie weergegeven. De levendige kleuren en de delicate textuur van de huid van de kikker trekken de aandacht, terwijl de achtergrond, vaak minimalistisch, de focus op het onderwerp legt. Deze kunstdruk beperkt zich niet tot het afbeelden van een kikker; ze roept ook een omgeving, een sfeer, een interactie tussen het dier en zijn habitat op. Catesby slaagt erin een evenwicht te creëren tussen kunst en wetenschap, en biedt zo een visie die verder gaat dan een eenvoudige illustratie en een ware viering van de natuur wordt. De kunstenaar en zijn invloed Mark Catesby, natuuronderzoeker en kunstenaar uit de achttiende eeuw, wordt vaak beschouwd als de voorloper van de naturalistische illustratie. Zijn werk speelde een cruciale rol in de documentatie van de fauna en flora van Amerika, en zijn invloed reikt veel verder dan zijn tijd. Tijdens zijn reizen door de Amerikaanse koloniën verzamelde Catesby specimens en maakte schetsen die de manier waarop wetenschappers en het grote publiek de natuur zagen, zouden revolutioneren. Zijn vernieuwende aanpak heeft vele kunstenaars en wetenschappers geïnspireerd, en zijn nalatenschap leeft voort in de werken van degenen die de relatie tussen kunst en wetenschap blijven verkennen. De kunstdruk van "De landkikker Rana" is een toegangspoort tot dit fascinerende universum, een eerbetoon aan een man wiens passie voor de natuurShipping Notes

Perfect for Pilots
Color: Gold/G-15 Green, Lens Width: 55 Millimeters
I work in aviation and got these because they have a very top gun, fresh-esque look. The glass is solid, I’ve dropped them a few times and haven’t scratched them yet (from August - March). Fits perfectly under my headset and they can slide on and off pretty easily with the headset on. I can see the G1000 perfectly, without losing any of the panel as I did with my polarized glasses.
Good shades - slightly too small for my face, hence the four stars.

Just perfect.
Color: Gold Havana/G-15 Green, Lens Width: 55 Millimeters
I saw this model of Ray Bans while watching Top Gun: Maverick. Actor John Hamm (Cyclone, in the movie) sported these during the beach scene. I looked for them here in Amazon and was lucky to find them for less than $100. They fit just great, and the lenses (G-15), give a clear and high definition picture. I definitely recommend them, perfect for driving, cycling, or your next F/A-18 mission.

Almost like they used to be...
Color: Gunmetal/G-15 Green, Lens Width: 55 Millimeters
These are the 3rd pair of Caravans I've owned over the years. The 1st pair were chrome frames and got mangled one time when I had set them on the trunk of the car to fill-up and drove away without them. Went back after only 100 yards or so, but by then they had been clipped by another car and were toast. Kept the lenses, sent the frame back to B&L (when they were still in Rochester -- and when customer service really WAS important to the company) and they sent back a brand-new pair of black-framed beauties -- FOR FREE!
This pair recently experienced a broken frame - right at the junction of the lower curved piece that holds the lens frames together. (How this happened, I have no idea. I was wearing them. Put them in my shirt pocket. Took them out, put them on, and the lens was still in my pocket!) Now, Bausch & Lomb is owned by Luxottica (in Atlanta, GA.) Not entirely friendly, I would say, especially in the tone of the service rep's voice and bluntness. And I was told my only hope of getting any kind of satisfaction was to ship the broken pair to them and after examination they would decide whether it was a manufacturing defect or a customer caused one. Believe me -- there are NO damage marks on these black frames. The frame just cracked due to what? Fatigue, I guess. If judged in my favor they'd give me a substantial discount (40%, I believe) off list price on another pair that they might have in stock at the time. Egads! Talk about leaving you feeling helpless. NONE of the frames and lenses shown were to my liking, so I opted out of that choice and decided to search Amazon for a pair to my liking.
So, this brings me to the new ones -- the subject at hand. The lenses on these are advertised as being 55mm wide, which they are. However, the original Caravans were 58mm wide = a small but perceptable difference, especially in field-of-view coverage AND how they look on your face. The G15 lenses seem to be the same tint, and the color (gun metal grey) is very nice. They fit well, and are what one would expect given the name RayBan. Therefore, I recommend them.
[Footnote: As for my broken 58mm black-framed pair -- I looked up repair shops on the I-net, found 2 that seemed to talk a good game, picked one (in Cincinnati) and shipped them off today to have the frame laser welded. I am keeping my fingers crossed that they'll come back in usable shape (as promised) and I will again have my Old Faithfull's back. $35 to save a no-longer-made classic pair of RayBans is worth it in my book.]

Classic Design!! But the 55mm frame is too small..
Color: Gunmetal/G-15 Green, Lens Width: 55 Millimeters
Really solid frame and arrived rather fast (7 days before the expected date). It included the original packaging, booklets, cloth and case (the brown one) in the original box. Was surprised that it felt quite heavy, or at least more than what Im used to, although when I wear it I can't really feel the weight. The weight also adds to the feel of it making its structure feel a little more solid that lighter sunglasses.
Unfortunately, the 55mm gunmetal + green G 15 lens which I ordered, is about 6 millimetres too small at the sides for me although the lens and front frame are the right size for me and it's actually still wearable. (it's just me).
I would probably get the 58mm gold + green G15 later to see if there's a big difference (shouldn't be from the measurements given). That and the fact that these are a great pair of shades with a really classic design

Iconic, but needs a few notes
Color: Gold/G-15 Green, Lens Width: 58 Millimeters
A great style, especially for those of us who don't go for the original Aviator style. But these sunglasses do need a few notes.
The size on these have 58mm-diameter lenses with 15 mm between the lenses (if my decoding of the code on the side is correct. This is the largest size in this style, and even at that they are just *slightly* too small at the ears for my head. For context, the Ray Ban Wayfarer with a 50mm lens and 22m nosepiece fits perfectly.
Also these, like the original Aviators, are intended to cover pretty much the entire eye socket, so if you're seeing light coming in from the side or top...they are too small for you.
In other words, if you don't have a specific size head, these may not work for you and you'll be frustrated. I know it's hard to buy online since you don't get to try them on. OTOH, it's a little unethical (in my opinion) to go to a brick-and-mortar store just to try them on so you can turn around and buy them off of Amazon. DIYD and all that.
Assuming the fit is acceptable, these are very well made sunglasses. They just *feel* like quality and the lenses are fantastic. There is some concern on Amazon about some Ray Bans being fakes. The pair I received are the real thing - look for the etched R-B on the left lens (not the lens with the white logo on it), the R-B logo on the nosepieces, the lenses being made of glass (not plastic) and the identifier engraved on the underside of the bridge...these are indicators that you have a genuine pair in your hands. I purchased directly from Amazon, not a "fulfilled by Amazon" purchase, so caveat emptor on that score.
All in all, an outstanding pair of glasses at a good price.
