Giclee (jheeklay): This is a French word that means a spray
or spurt of liquid. It is probably derived from the verb, gicler
meaning to squirt. A giclee print connotes a new elevation in
print making technology. Images are generated from high
resolution digital scans and printed with archival quality inks
on various substrates including canvas and fine art papers.
Because these prints are digitally generated, they can be
reproduced to almost any size. This process provides better
color accuracy than any other means of reproduction.
Giclee prints are produced using professional quality 8 - 12
color ink jet printers such as those produced by Epson,
McDermid, and Hewlett-Packard. These technologically
advanced printers are capable of producing incredibly
detailed prints that closely replicate the origional paintings.
They have deep saturated colors and retain a beautiful
painterly quality with minute detail and subtle tints and blends. They have been specifically developed for the rigorously pricise
criteria of fine artists, art collectors, and connoiseurs of museum quality prints on archival materials in limited additions signed by
the artist.
Giclee prints are sometimes mistakenly reffered to as Iris prints
which are 4 color inkjet prints from a printer pioneered in the late
1970s by Iris Graphics.
