Prints are available in most any size, though some sizes would require cropping beyond the composition of the images that you here. All prints are produced with archival quality inks onto various professional grade substrates including canvas, fine art, and photo-base paper – glossy, semi-gloss, matte, and watercolour paper finishes are used depending on the particular work.

 

Prints produced in this manner are sometimes called “giclee prints”. A giclee (zhee-CLAY) is an individually produced, high-resolution, high-fidelity reproduction done on a special inkjet technology printer. Giclees use inkjet technology, but a variety far more sophisticated than that found in the common desktop or photo printer. The process employs seven colors—light cyan, cyan, light magenta, magenta, yellow, light black, and black--of lightfast (UltraChrome) inks and finer, more numerous, and replaceable print heads resulting in a wider color gamut, and the ability to use various media to print on. The ink is sprayed onto the page, actually mixing the inks on the page to create true colors.

 

So, this is different from a traditional photograph, how long will a Giclee print last, and is it as “good” as a traditional photograph? With a rated life without visible deterioration under normal display conditions of better than three quarters of a century, these prints will outlast those from virtually any colour process, including Cibachrome. Archival test results report light fastness ratings of up to 90 years for color prints, and up to 100 years for black and white prints. The quality of a giclee print can rival traditional silver-halide and gelatin printing processes and is commonly found in museums, art galleries, and photographic galleries.
