What is a Giclée Print?

Giclée or Iris prints are produces oneat a time using water based inks on Arches 100% cotton rag paper. The use of this fine art archival paper (the same one used by the artist for her original paintings) helps to create results far superior to those of other printing methods. Giclée is a French word meaning “liquid spray”. The original image is first scanned into a computer and color corrected by a graphic artist. Then a special high-tech ink-jet printer transfers or “sprays” the image of the original painting directly onto watercolor paper with literally millions of microscopic dot of color. The resulting prints are rich in color and saturation often making it difficult to tell the print from the original painting. The editions, usually of 100 or less, are carefully numbered and signed by the artist.

With their superior quality, Giclée prints have gained wide acceptance. The Louvre in Paris uses them to reproduce and display work too fragile or valuable to put on display normally. Like original watercolors, Giclée prints must be protected from sunlight and fluorescent lighting. It is very important to protect them further by framing them under UV protective glass.
