Hahnemuhle FineArt Media

Hello friends! Today I will describe ways of printing images and making them look like real art pieces. To do that we can definitely rely on a company with more than 400 years experience producing paper.  Founded in 1584, Hahnemühle is the oldest German paper mill still producing papers for traditional and digital art. With such a reputation you can expect the best results when using their products.

The Hahnemühle papers provide an impressive and unique way to combine the precision of digital print media with the wonderful grace of genuine artist papers made in a traditional way. Take for instance the Canvas assortment for FineArt inkjet printing offers a wide choice of canvas made from cotton or poly-cotton. With its selection of colours and structures the assortment enables every artwork to have a unique character. Very popular among professionals are the Daguerre and Monet Canvas.

The Daguerre Canvas offers a fine structure which is particularly good for fine Art Photo printing. Its bright white point provides clear, fresh colors and contrasts for black and white reproductions. The A3 format, which is available in 20 sheet boxes, is ideal for stretching canvas of 8×10″ with  400 gsm (grams per square meter), Poly-Cotton and bright white base.

The Monet Canvas is a heavy cotton canvas with a woven pattern. Its natural white color is perfect for art reproduction, but also works well for high quality photo printing. Monet Canvas is also available in A3 format in 20 sheet boxes, 410 gsm and 100% Cotton. This canvas papers can be assembled in a beautiful photo wrap specially designed for them. That’s right, the Hahnemuhle Gallerie Photo Wrap is a quick and easy way to give any picture a gallery wrapped look.

The Photo Wraps do not require positioning corners and they are packaged with two sheets of either Monet Canvas in 10×16″ or 6×8″ sizes,   or Daguerre Canvas in 10×16″ or 6×8″ sizes. They are very easy to put together and you can have a professional wrap in minutes.

Next in the family of digital printing products are the Matte FineArt papers.  These genuine artist papers made of 100 % cotton or pure alpha cellulose present smooth and textured surfaces and are provided with a matt Premium-Inkjet coating. This special coating permits high quality printings. They are available in a wide range of thickness from 188gsm all the way to 500gsm.

Finally I will like to mention the Glossy FineArt line of artist papers  similar to the Matte FineArt papers,  they are made of 100% cotton or pure alpha cellulose are provided with a Premium-Inkjet coating. The gloss range extends from subtle gloss (satin) to mid lustre (pearl) through to high gloss (baryta).

As you can see, with Hahnemühle we can produce fantastic results in at a very convenient price. Contact us for more details and to find out which paper will be perfect for your next Fine Art printing.
