About Giclée Printing
Giclée (jhee-clay) - Derived from the French verb
gicler meaning to squirt. The term giclée print
typically connotes a certain elevation in printmaking technology.
Images are high resolution digital scans printed with archival quality
inks onto various substrates. The giclée process provides better color
accuracy than other means of reproduction.
Giclée prints (also known as Iris prints) are advantageous
to artists who find it not feasible to reproduce their work, but want
to reproduce their art as needed.
Once an image is archived, additional reproductions can be made with
minimal effort and cost. Thus the up-front cost of limited editions
is eliminated and printing is done on demand.
Another tremendous advantage to Giclée printing is that artwork can
be reproduced to almost any size and on various media, giving the
artist the ability to customize prints for a specific client.
Image permanence is a concern to artists and collectors. At
Art & Framing Designs we use Ultrachrome ink from Epson
which is very stable, giving fade & color shift resistance
of 75 years on watercolor paper under average indoor light conditions.
