What are the specific paper and print specifications?
We use 250 gsm (110 lb) archival museum-quality paper. It is natural white, uncoated, and matte, providing a non-reflective surface that preserves the fine details of Jimmy Ernst's 1944 work without yellowing over time.
How is the frame constructed and what are its dimensions?
The frame is made from responsibly sourced black oak or ash wood. It measures 20mm (0.79") in both width and thickness, providing a robust and premium profile that surpasses the industry standard for gallery prints.
Is the artwork protected from damage and UV light?
Yes, each print is protected by shatterproof plexiglass. This material is lighter and stronger than traditional glass, offering superior protection during transit and shielding the print from dust and environmental degradation.
Is the Biological Discovery print ready to hang out of the box?
Absolutely. Your framed art print arrives fully assembled with a hanging kit included. The design ensures it sits flush against the wall for a professional, gallery-style installation.
