The High Quality Of Giclee Replica Prints

By Stephen Harris


Bare walls are boring, and you definitely do not want your home to be boring. You should fill your walls, but you do not want to do it with just any kind of art. The pieces that adorn your walls should be colorful, interesting, and look resplendent. If you really want the color and quality of your prints to look fantastic, you should consider giclee replica prints.

Beyond decorating for yourself, many people like to decorate in order to impress guests and neighbors. Your next dinner party will include lots of conversation about your new artwork if they are giclee quality.

Many people settle for regular prints because they think that is all they can afford, but that does not have to be the case. With giclees, you can get resplendent reproductions that often rival the original in quality and color, but at a price that is affordable for nearly any budget you might have.

The reason this type of printing looks so good is due to advanced technology. The printers used are ink jet like what you might have at home, but very high end ones that are good for commercial use. Instead of two or five cartridges of ink, these use anywhere from eight to 12 tanks instead, which makes the color bolder and more vivid, while giving it dimension so the details really look real.

The original painting is digitally scanned in high resolution. That scan is then printed directly onto whatever substrate that you choose. Many times it is canvas, because that is traditionally associated with this kind of artwork. However, for a change of pace, sometimes they are made on photo paper, fine art paper, and even metal or glass.

For the artist, giclees are a huge advantage for them in a lot of ways. The scan can be kept on file, so prints can be made as they are ordered or in small batches. Before this method, many artists had to mass produce their work at great initial cost, and might lose money if all the reproductions are not sold. Using the giclee method, there is a much smaller up front cost and they can make prints far into the future, on demand. Smaller artists who have not broken though yet and have no money find this to be very advantageous.

Since the scanned file or files are digital, they can be archived and used again and again in the future. There is no worry about negatives or slides deteriorating over time, which means that each scanned piece is saved for future printing at any time.

Even though these are reproductions, the high quality of giclee prints still attracts thousands of dollars at auctions and art houses across the world. Some artists even get tens of thousands if they limit the print run, making each one more highly coveted. So if you see a giclee from an artist you really love, you should buy it immediately knowing the quality is top notch and you are helping to support them in a way that is beneficial for everyone.
