A giclée print is an elevation in printmaking technology on archival paper. The original oil on canvas artwork is first scanned by the Athenæum of Philadelphia on a sophisticated high-resolution digital scanner with a raking light to capture surface details. The giclée is then printed using a professional eleven-color ink jet printer with archival-quality inks onto acid-free Innova soft textured fine art paper. This printing process provides better color accuracy than other means of reproduction. The archival paper giclée is then placed in a 100% cotton museum-quality mat. An historical and architectural description (written by John) is affixed to the back and the giclée is enclosed in a protective acid-free clear bag.
