Giclee (pronounced "zhee-clay") prints are high-quality fine art prints created using archival pigmented inks and professional-grade media. They're considered superior because they offer unmatched color accuracy with a wide color gamut (12-color printing), exceptional detail reproduction, and excellent longevity. Our giclee prints are fade-resistant and made on acid-free materials that resist yellowing and aging.

Thanks to advancements in inkjet technology over the past decade, fine art paper prints often offer superior color gamut, better contrast, and greater depth compared to traditional photo prints. Many fine art photographers are switching to giclee printing because the right combination of image and paper can produce results that surpass conventional photographic printing methods.

To maximize the lifespan of your fine art prints, avoid displaying them in direct sunlight and protect them from extreme temperature fluctuations and humidity. We recommend framing paper prints behind glass or acrylic glazing. For unframed prints in retail settings, store them in clear, acid-free bags to protect them from environmental factors and handling damage.

While home printing technology has improved, GFS Gallery offers professional-grade equipment, archival materials, and expert color management that most home setups cannot match. Additionally, having your work printed by a professional print service elevates its status from a "homemade reproduction" to a professionally produced giclee print, which is more readily accepted by galleries and collectors.

Our advanced 12-color printing system includes multiple black and gray inks that create truly stunning black and white prints with smooth tonal transitions, deep blacks, and detailed highlights. This specialized approach eliminates color casts and produces neutral, archival-quality monochrome prints that showcase the full range of tones in black and white photography.

At GFS Gallery, we offer a large selection of preferred standard sizes as well as custom sizing options up to 40x60 inches. This flexibility allows artists and photographers to create prints that perfectly match their vision or the specific requirements of their clients and display spaces.
