A canvas gallery wrap giclée is hand-stretched on heavy duty stretcher bars and is ready-to-hang and easy to clean.

A giclée printed on watercolor paper has more of a matte finish, capturing the essence of original works in water media, and like water media requires a frame with protective glass or acrylic covering it.

An advantage of the giclée printing process compared to the traditional offset lithograph method is the archival quality. Giclée colors will not fade or dull over time, transcending from a print to a treasured heirloom. Properly cared-for giclées can last over 100 years!

• We use premium, American-made canvas that is built to be archival.
• Giclées are then printed with multiple coats of high-quality archival ink.
• Canvas Giclées are finished with 4 coats of varnish. The first coats reinforce the gesso'd canvas and the topcoat stays flexible as it ages and prevents cracking on the surface. The varnishes we use are hand-mixed and have been developed and perfected over years of experimentation to ensure the best possible quality and longest lifespan.
