General
Print Information
Giclẽe Editions:
Giclẽe which (roughly translated) means fine spray, is the latest form of printing to enter the art market.
With the advent of digital image capture and ink jet printing technology,
giclẽe printing has opened up a wide range of options for the Artist.
Not the least of which is that Images to be reproduced are safely stored
in a digital format and are produced only upon demand.
This brings with it the guarantee that upon purchase each giclẽe is a
brand new baby. The cost of producing one or two reproductions at a
time (although costly compared to individual prints within complete
edition lithographic print runs) negates the need for a large
investment and opens the door for the Artist to self-sustain the
reproduction process. The price of each giclẽe by Art Unseen
directly reflects (through image dimensions) the cost of
reproducing and marketing the image. Giclee prints are signed,
numbered and distributed consecutively starting from number one to the end
of the specified print run limit.
Color giclẽe editions are printed on an Epson Stylus® Pro 10000 using 100%
pigment based archival inks on canvas. Giclẽe on canvas editions are
then lightly coated with a high
quality varnish,
stretched onto an inner wooden frame and given a heavier final coat for
full U. V. protection. Suitable for framed or unframed
display canvas giclẽes do not require glass cover for preservation
purposes.
Black and white giclẽe editions are printed on an Epson Stylus® Pro 9500
to produce a true black and white image using partial pigment Epson Ultra
Chrome inks. In a duo-tone method of printing, two separate shades of
black are printed on 100% Acid Free 425g Cotton Rag. For proper
preservation black and white on cotton rag editions require framing under
glass before displaying.
Premium Editions:
Giclẽe Premium Editions by Petrus Boots are printed to scale with the original work and
are the closest representation of the image short of the one and only hand
worked original. Premium editions do not and will never exceed a
maximum of 100 prints with color editions on canvas held to no more than
60.
Lithograph Editions:
Lithographic is a more traditional form of printing, which (until
the advent of archival quality tested giclẽes) was the relative standard in
the reproduction of art prints. Lithography is a form of direct
printing where images are burned onto plates and ink applied onto paper
through a large industrial printing press. With the entire edition
completed in one print run the cost overhead and investment is
substantial. The initial out lay by the Artist along with gallery cuts and
the reproduction limit placed on the image reflect the retail cost of each
print. For proper preservation lithographic editions on acid free
rag require framing under glass before displaying.
Remarque Editions:
Remarques or re-marks (as defined by the word) are reworked
lithographic prints which include some form of hands on touch by the
Artist. Whether adding color to a printed black and white image or
including sketches within the border, this process is labor intensive.
This fact naturally limits the number of remarques produced by Art Unseen to editions not exceeding a maximum of 27.
Limited Editions:
Limited Editions are the standard and largely accepted form of reproducing an Artist's work for
market. A print run limit is set and each individual print is
signed, numbered and proofed by the Artist. Limited editions by Art
Unseen do not exceed a maximum of 500 pieces.
Open Editions:
Open Editions are editions where no limit is set to the number of copies
produced. Lithographic remains the standard for open edition
printing hence creating first, second, third... editions of which the
first is approximately a 1000 pieces. First edition printings are
signed and quoted by the Artist.
Art Cards & Laminated
Décor Prints :
Art cards are printed through the giclẽe ink jet method
and at a size of 6in by 9in (15.25cm by 23cm) are suitable for sharing greetings with
friends or framing. Laminated Décor Prints are printed using the
same giclee method on canvas and then laminated. At a size of 10in
by 16in (25.5cm by 40.75cm) they are a comfortable size for those
who have limited wall space available within their home for hanging works
of art.
