What are the specific paper qualities of this print?
This reproduction is printed on Master's Edition 250 gsm (110 lb) archival paper. It features a matte, uncoated, natural white finish that offers a luxurious texture and eliminates glare, perfect for high-end interior display.
How does the 'archival' quality affect the longevity of the artwork?
The paper is acid-free with a pH above 7, which chemically prevents the material from yellowing or becoming brittle over time. This ensures the fine art print maintains its original clarity and color for decades.
Is the paper used for this print environmentally sustainable?
Yes, RedKalion uses FSC-certified paper (or equivalent certifications depending on regional availability). This ensures the print meets high environmental and social standards for responsible forest management.

How thick is the paper used for the 30x40 inch print?
