The word Giclee (pronounced Gee’clay)  has its origins in a French word which means spraying. These prints make use of high quality printing inks and are used for the purpose of archives. Giclee prints are made on rolls of canvas and use the latest technology printers to obtain the best resolution and excellent color accuracy.

Giclee prints make use of high resolution inkjet printers and the major brands include HP, Epson, Canon, etc. These printers give detailed prints that resemble an artist’s painting. It is the most cost-effective way to own a famous work of art. Giclee prints help lovers of art to own priceless artworks at a fraction of their actual cost.

Giclee prints provide a number of advantages. An artist may take a very long time to print a large number of copies of an artwork. But with a giclee print, an artist can reproduce a number of copies, which are exact replicas of the original without spending much time on them. This works out to be more cost-efficient.

The artwork can be made into a digital format and accessed to make giclee prints as and when required. The print can be customized to suit the demand for different sizes and number of copies. An added advantage is that one can have a copy of the artwork archived in the digital format. There are many art lovers who cannot afford to own one, because of the prohibitive cost involved. To them giclee prints come as a boon since they are affordable; we make a choice of the painting and in no time transfer onto a canvas. Thus it even becomes possible to own a complete collection of the particular artists work, at just a fraction of the original cost.

Using inkjet printers to transfer the prints onto a canvas gives astonishing resemblances with the original, except for the brush strokes of the artist. Since photographs are the only direct visual links to the past, to take you back in time to those cherished moments, just transfer them to a canvas, and behold a splendid and shining portrait. In this manner, photographs of weddings, fun-filled school memories, a new-born baby, a child’s first faltering steps, glimpses of nature, and so on; all provide a very personalized décor on the walls of the home, just because they are actually glorious reproductions of one’s own memories.
