What makes the paper quality of this Martin Barré print museum-grade?
We use 250 gsm (110 lb) natural white, archival-grade paper. It is uncoated and matte, ensuring high-density color reproduction and longevity without the glare often found in cheaper photographic prints.
How is the frame constructed for the 70x100 cm print?
The print is housed in a 20mm (0.79") wide and thick black wooden frame made from FSC-certified oak and ash. It is wider than standard frames, providing a robust, premium gallery aesthetic.
Is the artwork protected from breakage during shipping?
Yes, each framed print utilizes shatterproof, transparent plexiglass rather than standard glass. This ensures your Martin Barré artwork arrives in perfect condition and remains safe in high-traffic areas of your home.
Does the print arrive ready to hang?
Absolutely. Every RedKalion framed art print includes a professional hanging kit. The artwork is pre-mounted within the frame, allowing you to elevate your space the moment it arrives.
How does RedKalion ensure the sustainability of its art prints?
We prioritize the environment by using FSC-certified wood for our frames and paper. This ensures that your investment in fine art supports responsible forestry and sustainable production practices.
