A Giclee' ( gee-clay) is a state of the art process of reproducing art
archivally with incredible accuracy. It's amazingly true to the original
painting in color and detail. Your giclee' will truly be a legacy for
generations under normal conditions and will resist fading for at least
a century.
What is a limited edition?
A limited edition is a release of an art piece which is limited to a certain
number. Once the edition is sold out there aren't any more, therefore
your Giclee' can become even more valuable as time goes by.
How can I preserve my Giclee'?
Framing is available from artcmom.com for very reasonable prices.
If you choose to have the framing done yourself be sure to:
Use acid-free mat board around the front as well as behind the piece.
This will ensure your piece will be properly preserved from natural
acids in papers.
Use u.v. glass or u.v. plexiglass to keep harmful u.v. rays from breaking
down your inks over many, many years
