What are Giclée-prints
The Giclée-technique is a relative newcomer on the Dutch Fine Art market. It has been especially developed in order to satisfy the critical demands of fine art collectors and connaisseurs who favour limited editions of museum quality. Although Giclée does not properly belong to the category of traditional printing techniques, such as lithography or serigraphy, there are many points of resemblance. The preparation is the same: the original work is photographied on a slide, wich is subsequently scanned (it is also possible to make a digital photo directly, without using a scan); then the result is processed by computer, seperating the colors in order to determine the number of printing-operations necessary for film, printing plate or screen. The first thing a connaisseur will notice when looking at our Giclée-prints is the exceptionally subtle screen ruling, the superb sharpness of perspective and details and the deep colors, with a smooth color balance. Giclée-prints are characterised by the velvet softness of their structure. "giclér" is a French word, meaning "to beam" or to "spray". In this technique, uninterrupted ink transfers are used to apply the different layers of color, by means of an Iris 3047 printing roller with an optical density of no less than 1840 dpi (dots per inch). The Giclée-prints are printed by Krause Editions, a modern Art Printing Studio, specialised in limited art-prints with a very high image and printing quality, on 310 grams Hahnemuhle german etching paper.
