Giclee Canvas Art

Canvas Giclee

The most sophisticated inkjet printing process today, “giclee” literally means “spray” in French. To produce a giclee work, the images from a work of art are digitally captured and precision sprayed directly onto 100% cotton, artist-grade canvas using highly sophisticated inkjet printers and archival quality ink. The colors of the inks mix on the surface to create true colors, rather than the dots that the eye has to blend together in a lithograph, creating a result much more like the original painting. In addition, compared to traditional lithography, giclee printers’ use six colors rather than just four. The finished product is a fade resistant, collector-quality work of art.

A Work of Art

The giclee print on canvas looks exquisite, beautiful, impressive and elegant. Their “Museum Quality” gives you the prestige of a serious fine art collector. This fine art reproduction does not need to be framed with protective glass so the image can be seen clearly without bothersome glares.

The giclee is quickly becoming the new standard in the art industry, and is widely embraced for its astonishing quality by major museums, art galleries, publishers and artists. A giclee print is quite simply the closest representation of an original artwork that is currently possible.

Deep Museum Wrap and Professional Finish

Our canvas giclee fine art reproductions are wrapped around impressive 1 1/2” stretcher bars for a beautifully finished, museum quality contemporary look without the need for a frame.

In addition, we complete the professional finish by enclosing the back and including a biography of the artist on each piece along with a pre-attached wire. Simply remove your artwork from the packaging and hang.

 
Cleaning and Care Instructions

If cared for properly, a canvas giclee can result in a lifetime of richly textured beauty and detail. To ensure your canvas looks as good as the day you bought it, we recommend the following tips:

  • Hang your canvas in an area with moderate temperature and humidity levels. Extreme heat, cold, humidity and temperature fluctuations may damage your artwork or cause it to warp.
  • Avoid hanging your canvas in direct sunlight. When exposed to direct sunlight, it will fade over time.
  • If you notice dust buildup on your artwork, you can lightly dust it with a soft, dry lint free cloth.
  • Do not use water to clean your canvas artwork. Water droplets may bead and permanently damage the artwork.
  • Never use solvents or cleaners of any kind on your canvas art.
  • When carrying canvas art, it is best to hold the artwork by the frame or the outer edge of the stretcher bars. If you loop your fingers under the stretcher bars, you may inadvertently “stretch” the painting away from the stretcher.
