Giclée History
 
The contemporary giclée has become a valuable part of the limited edition fine art world. Giclée, a word derived from a French verb meaning “that which is sprayed by a nozzle”, is an archival fine art digital print. Giclées are created by a method of printing in which the image is scanned and digitally enhanced on a computer to match the original fine art.

The image is then sent to a high-resolution inkjet printer, which sprays millions of microscopic droplets of ink onto various substrates to create an image with smooth tonal gradation. The superior quality of these giclée prints are many times combined with the human touch of hand-embellishments to give a more powerful appeal among consumers that want the look of an original fine art image at a more affordable price.   


The Creation Process
 
The creation of a Zodiac-Art/Classic Murals limited edition giclée prints start with the original artwork designed by a team of highly qualified professional artists. Through their collaboration and expertise, these artists have created a dazzling collection of unique and sophisticated decorative images. In efforts to cater to the demand for classically inspired European artwork, Classic Murals has constructed a collection worthy of royalty with images inspired by the exquisite interior ornaments of famous European villas and palaces.

After the original artwork is created, a professional photographer produces an 8x10 inch transparency of the image, which is later, scanned into a file format using a state-of-the-art drum scanner. Next, a graphic artist specialized in the latest Macintosh computer graphic programs and technology, digitally enhancing the image to re-create the power of the original artwork. Before the image is finalized a various number of giclées prints are created, which are later signed, and counted separately as “artist proofs”. The prints support media is a trade proven archival fine art paper, 100% acid free, cotton bond, 425 gm and or on canvas.
