Detailed information on all of these limited edition prints can be found here. Limited Edition Print. A reproduction of a work of art (drawing, painting) limited to a certain number of prints. These are usually signed by the artist and numbered. For example 5/200 would be print number 5 in an edition of 200 prints. Note: Numbered prints are still available but numbered prints signed by E. J. Hughes are no longer available. Giclée A newer method of full colour printing which has major advantages over "offset litho" printing, which is usually limited to four or six colours. A giclée printer can best be described as a large inkjet printer which can print images onto various media, including textured watercolour paper and canvas. The printer sprays computer-controlled inks, premixed to 256 colours, through microscopic nozzles to create a full colour image without a dot pattern. Like an oil painting, the image is protected by a varnish coating. Generally, an oil painting will be reproduced on canvas while a watercolour will be printed on paper. By using the same medium as the original painting for the printed reproductions, the prints look even more like the originals. |
