What is a Giclée?

The art of fine art printing became even more precise with the advent of the revolutionary giclée printing process. A giclée print is as rewarding visually as it is technically amazing. For brilliant, exquisite color and razor-sharp detail it is unsurpassed. This type of art reproduction has become the new standard in the art industry, and it is widely embraced for its quality by major museums, galleries, publishers, and artists. A giclée print is simply the closest duplication of an original artwork that is humanly, mechanically or technically possible.

The word giclée itself is French and means ‘spurt’ or ‘squirt.’ In this artistic case the meaning is ‘spray of ink.’ Once completed, an image is comprised of literally billions of droplets of ink. The latest giclée printing technology enhances the standard 4-color process to an 8-color process.

The resulting print has no perceptible dot pattern, an endless array of richly saturated color, and every nuance of the original image. It is the most archival, water-based, light-fastness and UV-resistant printing under museum archival condition.

Beyond description, a giclée print simply must be seen to be fully appreciated. Fine art galleries have warmly received giclée reproductions that have an impressive exhibition record. Giclées have been shown in museums and galleries throughout the world.
