about the prints

‘A photograph isn't real until you hold it.’

Each giclee print is made on archival, museum-quality, cotton rag paper. There are three edition sizes:

• Collections of 5 per print size - for a total of no more than 25 prints

• Special international editions of 50.

• Legacy images are limited to a single size in an edition of 5.

I will only print up to the optimal size for the original file or scan to show both detail and nuance. This ensures the best viewing experience. Each print is supplied with a signed Certificate of Authenticity.

Larger prints are sized to boldly dominate a wall while the smaller ones are perfect for compact spaces, becoming a part of a wider art collection. As I treat each scene individually, different pictures have their own crop or form factors. Paul Foley

Foley Fine Art Prints are printed on either Ilford Prestige Galarie Smooth Cotton Rag or Hahnemühle Photo Rag heavyweight stock using state-of-the-art, museum-grade printers and professional archival inks.

The Paper Size allows for at least a 20mm white border around the image. The border may vary according to the format of the picture. Contact Paul if you need the exact image dimensions of your picture.

‘I make photographs to be hung on walls and appreciated for decades. The soft texture of these bright white papers is integral to how I want you to see and ‘feel’ my work.’

For Australian-based clients

If you choose one of the framing options, your giclée print will be dry-mounted to an acid-free 5 mm foam board using an archival adhesive film. It is then placed in a hand-crafted shadowbox frame (except for the small size) made from FSC-certified Tasmanian Oak and protected by durable 3mm museum-grade plexiglass. The back of the frame is finished with framer’s tape and stainless steel hanging wire. A signed Certificate of Authenticity is supplied to be attached to the back of the frame.

Free 14 - 21 day Australia-wide carbon offset delivery via trackable courier. Custom-made biodegradable packaging. Fully insured for damages. 

Introducing the International Select Series

Paul is very pleased to be collaborating with the printspace, which print and frame special international selections of his work, delivered free around the world. The first release is 'Liquid Light'.

Prints can be ordered unframed or with German-made Nielsen Quadrum picture frames made from FSC®-certified wood. The wood comes from sustainably managed forests that meet the criteria of the Forest Stewardship Council. The Oak frames are solid wood from FSC®-certified sources with an Oak veneer. The A4 and A3 frames are equipped with edge-ground float glass, while the larger A2 size uses gallery-grade acrylic. Every frame features an acid-free insert and a sturdy rear panel. The rear panels are equipped with hangers in portrait and landscape formats.
