[section title=”What is a Giclee Print?”]In giclee printing, no screen or other mechanical devices are used and therefore there is no visible dot screen pattern. The image has all the tonalities and hues of the original painting. Giclee (pronounced Gee’clay) is a French term meaning to spray or squirt, which is how an inkjet printer works. However, it is not the same as a standard desktop inkjet printer, and is much larger. Giclee prints are a little over a metre wide and are often affectionately referred to as a “knitting machine” as they look very similar.[/section]

[section title=”Do Giclee printers use ordinary printers inks?”]No. They use special light-fast inks, which, if kept out of the sun, will remain true for up to 100 years.[/section]

[section title=”Why is used Canvas for Giclee prints?”]Because prints on canvas looks exquisite, beautiful, impressive and elegant. Their “Museum Quality” gives you the prestige of a serious fine art collector. Besides, Canvas Prints (giclees) do not need to be framed with protective glass so the image can be seen clearly without bothersome glares. The natural texture of the canvas gives to the print the exact look and feel of an original oil painting. Also, Canvas Prints (giclees) are tougher and far more durable than paper prints as they do not crease when rolled for mailing. Giclee prints can be produced on any paper as you wish. I chose to print on to canvas.[/section]

[section title=”How is a Giclee Print shiped?”]Giclee prints are shipped in box. Canvas is stretched on canvas stetcher-bar. (ready to hang on!!)[/section]

[section title=”Should I know something more after having these artworks?”]Giclee on Canvas prints are meant to be stretched on canvas stretcher-bars (a service offered by most good framers) and framed with frame only (no glass or mattboards) – just like original oil paintings.
These Giclee prints are designed to be viewed under neutral-colored light; very warm incandescent light (sometimes found in homes) or very cool flourescent light (sometimes found in offices) may affect the artwork’s apparent color balance. Please remember that all artwork and original oil paintings, MUST be kept away from direct sunlight.[/section]
