FAQs

  • A Giclée print is a high-quality printing method used to reproduce fine art and photographs. It involves using archival-quality inks and specialized printers to create museum-quality prints with exceptional detail and color accuracy.

  • Each print using this method is made up of thousands of small ink particles that build up to produce a print, using the halftone technique that simulates continuous-tone imagery through the use of dots, varying either in size or in spacing, thus generating a gradient-like effect.
