What are the paper specifications for the Brice Marden print?
The artwork is printed on 250 gsm (110 lb) natural white, matte, museum-quality paper. This archival-grade, acid-free paper ensures that the vibrant colors and subtle gradients of Marden’s study remain pristine for decades without yellowing or fading.
Is the black wooden frame sustainably sourced?
