Why the printed photograph looks better than the preview
No watermarks appear on purchased products. Website images are reduced in resolution and compressed for display. Your print is made from the original high-resolution master file for outstanding definition and fine detail.
Print sizes & finishes
Framed and unframed paper prints are available in A0, A1, A2, A3 and A4. They are made as fine art giclée prints on Canon Pro Platinum 300gsm photo paper.

How the border affects image size
For unframed prints, the selected size is the paper size. The optional 15mm white border sits inside it. Framed prints retain the A-series image size, with a separate 35mm mount outside the photograph. A canvas retains the full A-series image on the front, with mirrored edges around its 22mm sides.
Printed on Canon Pro Platinum 300gsm photo paper for rich colour and fine detail.
A square profile with visible wood grain: 22mm wide and 22mm deep, surrounding a 35mm off-white mount. Made to order, glazed and ready to hang.
The mount sits outside the A-series image. Allow an extra 11.4cm in both directions for the mount and frame. Measurements are approximate; contact us for an exact fit.
Giclée printed on 350gsm bright white textured poly-cotton canvas, hand-stretched over a 22mm-deep wooden frame. Supplied ready to hang with saw-tooth fixings.
The full A-series photograph stays on the front. Its outer edges are mirrored around the sides, preserving the composition on the face. The selected size is the canvas face size.
12-colour pigment printing produces detailed highlights, rich blacks and smooth colour transitions. Our canvas option is the 22mm mirrored wrap, without a float frame.
