Eldborg, Iceland
Single edition print, 1/1
pigment ink print on fine art archival baryta paper (Canson Baryta Prestige II)
_ 39 x 58 cm: SOLD
signed, with certificate
_ the print comes with a white border of about 1,5 cm on each side, which allows for proper handling and facilitates matting and framing; the size mentioned above is a net size that does not include this border;
_ prints on archival fine art papers up until 58 by 87 cm are printed by myself on a Canon ImageProGraf Pro 2100 printer, using archival Canon Lucia Pro ink;
_ disclaimer: as part of the printing process, and to ensure my personal quality standards are met, several test prints are made, including a small sized colour proof (CP, typically A4). In the final print run, apart from the edition of 4, two full sized artist's proofs (AP) are created, one of them for exhibition purposes (so basically, it serves as an hors de commerce proof). In addition, a small (A4) HC print finds its way into my paper portfolio.
The contrastly, crunchy look of the lava rock basically begs for a paper with a very high D-max, brightness and whiteness. I went for Canson Infinity Baryta Prestige II without a second thought. Canson Infinity Baryta Prestige II consists of an acid and OBA free, internally buffered, ISO 9706 and FSC compliant, mixed alpha-cellulose & cotton white paper base to which a barium sulphate coating is applied, resulting in a high permanence.
