 Our Product
Global Editions is founded on the concept of offering a higher quality fine art product than is commonly found in offset lithographs sold by the majority of all major art publishers. From our inks to our papers to image resolution, quality is paramount.
Fine Art Giclée
A giclee (pronounced zhee-CLAY, a French term meaning "spray of ink") is a high-resolution, high-quality reproduction individually printed on a special large format printer. These beautiful digital reproductions are virtually unparalleled in quality and range of color, and are at the leading edge of fine art printmaking.
Inks
Every item we offer is printed on large format printers using a state-of-the-art inkset. Our archival 12 color pigment inkset provides the largest color gamut of any commercial ink ever developed. In addition, this ink has a color permanence rating in excess of 100 years (when properly cared for, and displayed in acceptable lighting).
Paper Prints
All paper media types are premium fine art grade substrates. Our museum prints are published on 100% acid free archival cotton rag paper. We do use different paper substrates for different product lines, but our core paper is a 300 gsm / 22.5 mil sheet, with a radiant white tone and a slight watercolor texture. All items are printed with at least a 2 in. border surrounding the image. Custom volume orders are available, in which the buyer can choose from different fine art papers that are available, as well as customizing image sizes.
Canvas
Our canvas product is printed on high quality artist grade canvas. This 350 gsm, acid-free, archival canvas has a tight, natural weave which maximizes image quality, while also revealing the texture of an artists canvas. These are NOT canvas transfers. They are giclee-on-canvas, in which the image is actually printed on the canvas surface. We do not offer a brushstroking service on these items. Every title we offer is available on canvas and can be ordered rolled or stretched.
Canvas Stretching
We also offer all canvas items as stretched, ready-to-hang items. All are museum stretched, with white canvas on the sides and staples on the back.Our stretched canvases are available with 3/4 in. or 1 1/2 in. stretcher bars.
