The Eternal Beauty Of Digital Prints On Canvas

A freak discovery in the early 1990s, that of the giclee prints, has become a great seller over the years. Today you can order photo to canvas print work with just a simple email. However, the world has really moved on since that day in 1990 when a printmaker accidentally stumbled onto what he called giclee meaning both nozzle and the act of spraying. This was exactly what the giclee was then. A modified inkjet printer, ordinary printer’s ink and a scanner produced what was raved about as fine art and hung on the walls of excellent galleries.

However, today’s photo digital prints are so far ahead of the giclee prints of early days as it have evolved to become an entirely different piece of art altogether. The reason is attributed to technology and artistry. These days the latest printers, the finest nozzles and the best scanners are used besides fine quality canvas that are treated to be resistant from scratches and archival inks that will ensure the durability of these photo digital prints for at least a couple of generations. Of course in order to ensure long life of these exclusive prints one has to take a fair amount of care and protect them from harsh sunlight, smoke, dust and dirt.
