French for “sprayed ink,” Giclées are a sophisticated printmaking process usually made from photographs or photos of paintings to produce high quality, permanent reproductions.
Giclée printing has many advantages over other printmaking methods. Since each piece is individually produced one reproduction can be created at a time if desired, therefore the artist is not obligated to finish an edition. It is possible to order prints as needed without large up-front costs and storage problems associated with other printing methods.
