Edition Giclée on Canvas
Giclée (pronounced
jee-clay), comes from the French term for “fine spray”. A giclée is created with digital printers using
four tiny ink jets that spray more than four million microscopic water-based
coloured ink droplets per second onto a sheet of fine art paper or canvas,
spinning on a drum at the rate of 250 inches per second. A computer directly scans an artist’s original
work to control the jets – no printing film or plates used. The final product is a superior, lush,
vibrant, near original quality textured art print. Canvas giclées are printed
on a high quality acid free polyester/cotton canvas. They are also sealed with a non-yellowing
protective varnish to further prolong the print life. The inks used are
pigmented, combined with high quality substratesto make the prints water
resistant and archival. Print
permanence testing (measured at 450 lux simulating ideal museum and gallery
conditions) concluded that the print life will exceed 100 to120 years on rag
paper. Canvas results should be
similar though exact testing has not been attained. A giclée is the highest quality of fine
art reproduction available today.
