Giclée Printing

Giclées are Museum quality Fine Art reproductions, also called Archival Prints. They are the result of highly advanced digital printing technology.

A Fine art Giclée is the closest to an original painting you can get. These artworks are made with an ultra-high-resolution fine-art printer, using the very finest archival inks on acid free paper. Unlike regular printed reproductions, Giclées are truly durable 'Museum quality' Fine Art reproductions.

A Fine art Giclée is created by tiny jets spraying millions of droplets of archival, pigmented inks onto a sheet of fine art, acid free paper. This spray of ink, more that 4 million droplets per second, gives the name giclée which is French for "fine spray. "

*Printed using lightfast Epson UltraChrome HDR inks on 310gsm archival museum quality 'Soft Textured Paper' at the same size as the original paintings (A soft textured fine art paper with a slight structure similar to traditional fine art paper. Acid free, natural white colour and single side coated. )
