What makes the paper quality 'museum-grade'?
We use 250 gsm (110 lb) archival paper, which is significantly thicker and more durable than standard prints. It is natural white and uncoated, ensuring long-term color stability without the yellowing associated with lower-quality materials.
What are the exact dimensions of the black wooden frame?
The frame is crafted from responsibly sourced oak and ash, measuring 20mm (0.79") in both thickness and width. This provides a more robust, premium aesthetic compared to the thinner 14mm frames commonly found elsewhere.
Is the artwork protected against accidental damage?
Yes, each framed print is fitted with high-quality shatterproof plexiglass. This ensures your Simon Hantaï print remains safe during shipping and within your home while maintaining perfect clarity.
Does the print come ready to hang?
Absolutely. Every RedKalion framed art print includes a pre-installed hanging kit, allowing you to elevate your space with an archival masterpiece immediately upon arrival.
How does RedKalion ensure shipping safety?
We utilize specialized protective packaging designed for large-format fine art. Our global logistics network ensures that your framed art print arrives in pristine condition, regardless of your location.
What is Simon Hantaï’s 'pliage' technique seen in Blanc?
Pliage involves folding or crumpling the canvas before applying paint. Once unfolded, the 'blank' areas create a unique structural composition that explores the relationship between the visible and the hidden in Tachisme.
How does Tachisme differ from other abstract styles?
Tachisme, often called the European counterpart to Action Painting, emphasizes spontaneous brushwork, 'blots' (taches), and intuitive gestures rather than geometric precision, as beautifully showcased in Hantaï’s work.
