Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Giclée print?

The word “Giclée” is French for “sprayed ink.” Today, the term is used to describe a sophisticated inkjet printmaking process which creates the highest quality fine art reproductions. Giclée printing offers extra-fine image resolution, helping retain a higher degree of detail from the original fine art.

I’m confused about which print size to order. Help?

Print sizing is a bit confusing as different countries use different measurements, either metric or imperial systems. In the UK it is extra confusing as we use a mix of both.

Print sizes have been selected to reflect commonly available frame sizes. Each print includes a white border around the image.

The charts below should help you understand what size to order a bit better.
