A: All of our botanical and most of our fish prints are "giclee prints." Images are generated from high resolution digital scans and printed with archival quality inks onto high quality archival paper. They will last without appreciable fading for as much as 80 years. The giclee printing process provides better color accuracy than other means of reproduction.
A few of our Tomelleri fish prints are signed and numbered and are shipped directly by the artist. Our Tomelleri Calendar prints are actual pages from his annual trout calendars which we mat and optionally frame.
