Hot off the Press, Giclée prints
The musician Graham Nash, who is also an accomplished photographer, funded the original technology. In 1991 the name Giclée was created because fine art collectors preferred terms that did not include “digital” and “computer”. Today Giclée describes a high quality, digitally produced, fine art print.
Giclée pieces are available in sizes proportional to the original.
