About Your Custom Matted Giclée Print
Your giclée print is printed on heavyweight, fine art paper,
which is acid-free for archival longevity. It is custom matted on
a conservation-grade white matboard ready for you to frame. Giclée
(jhee-clay) is a French term meaning "to spray from a nozzle".The
term was first coined in 1991 by Jack Duganne to refer to fine art
prints created with digital output. The main intention of the word
giclée was to distinguish "fine art prints" from
those created for non-art or commercial purposes. Early giclée
prints were found to be fugitive which meant that the inks faded quickly
when exposed to sunlight. In the last couple of years the light fastness
problem has been solved by the use of much more stable ink-sets on
coated papers and canvas. A second generation of giclée printers
are able to use pigmented inks which are extremely stable. The original
iris printers are still able to produce the highest quality images
because they use dye based inks, though the dye based inks are not
as archival as pigmented inks. The technology behind this revolution
is based on the power of computers combined with advances in printing
techniques. Extremely fine droplets of ink can be spurted onto heavy
watercolor paper or artists canvas. These droplets can be controlled
by computer so that the resolution of the printed image is much finer
than conventional printing. Overall, the benefits to artists and galleries
are that the quality and print-on-demand features enable more fine-art
prints to be available. The benefits for collectors are the superb
quality, stability, and fidelity of giclée prints, along with
a wider selection of images. New light fading tests from Wilhelm Imaging
Research indicate that prints made with the new Epson pigmented ink
on special archival paper, framed under glass, should exceed 100 years
of display at an illumination level of 450 lux for 12 hours per day
before noticeable fading occurs. Depending on specific media type,
prints made with the new inks will likely exceed 200 years of display. (www.wilhelm-research.com)

Art on Canvas
The original paintings by Herbert Brill are done as oil paintings
on stretched canvas. Now you can have the look of the original for
your wall or table easel. Many collectors show them just as they are
when they arrive to you, or you have the option of framing them any
way you wish. Your canvas artwork is stretched with the corners precision-folded
to create a stand-alone work of art. The outer edge is printed with
a white border, and the canvas is attached behind the frame. All canvas
prints are framed without glazing, giving the look of the original
painting. Your new canvas can either be mounted on your wall alone
or in a suite of other canvas art, or placed on a table easel and
displayed on your coffee table or book case for viewing.
