What is a Giclee Printing

Giclee art reproductions are produced from high resolution digital scanners and printed with archival quality inks onto various mediums that include canvas, fine art paper, and photo-based paper.

The most common medium to print on is canvas (even photos on canvas, to create a unique photo gift). This ensures that the Giclee prints are as close to the originals as possible, not only in color, but also in texture. And canvas prints are much more durable than paper as they do not crease when rolled for mailing.

Giclee reproductions are created using professional 8-Color ink-jet printers.

The printers are capable of producing incredibly vivid and detailed art reproductions for both the fine art and photographic industries.
