GICLEE DEFINITION:
Giclee (pronounced jhee-clay) reproductions were originally developed in 1989 as a digital method of fine art printing. The French word Giclee means to spray ink. Original artwork is converted into digital format, stored in the computer, and then sent directly to a high-resolution inkjet printer. A diverse range of substrates are routinely used, offering a variety of finishes and textures, such as watercolor paper and cotton canvas. Although more expensive than four color offset lithography, Giclee printing gives far higher quality and allows the artist to control every part of the printmaking process.
Kenneth M. Freeman Legacy Giclees have been printed on special quality cotton canvas and have been printed with archival quality inks with a lasting color impression of up to 75 years under extreme UV light exposure. Under normal exposure to UV lighting, they have a lasting impression of up to 200 years. The canvas is then stretched on stretcher bars, and the image is laminated. The Giclee is finally ready for framing and your enjoyment!
Giclee prints are now found in the finest galleries. Reputable museums around the world, including The Louvre, New York's Metropolitan Museum, and The Guggenheim, display Giclees as part of their collections.
