Giclée is French for "fine spray" and refers to our prints done on fine art papers with or without texture, and canvas. We use Epson Ultrachrome Inks, and our prints are archival to 90 years.
Gallery Wrap Canvas Whether the application is photographic portraiture or fine art reproduction, Epson premium canvas provides a vehicle for enhanced artistic creativity. 65% polyester and 35% cotton, this heavyweight canvas utilizes a tight weave and a coating that is pliable enough to withstand stretching without sagging, and has a subtle texture for a true artistic look and feel. High image quality and an archival display life.
A completed canvas print should be "stretched" on wood bars. The standard depth is one inch. You can have a deeper canvas at 2 3/8 inches as well. Either of these create the museum effect seen in galleries. You may choose to have your image visible (wrapped) on the sides or you may have a white or black border on the sides. (if you have a family portrait that goes to the edge, you probably do not want to wrap the image) We would be happy to examine your file, and make a suggestion.
