Reproductions and Enlargements

I went to Sharkfin Media, who’ve done such a great job of designing this website, not only because of their expertise in creating stunning websites but also because of their expertise in fine art reproduction. Their knowledge of photographing and printing artwork to the highest standard is exemplary: rest assured that a reproduction of one of my harmonograms will be top quality and will look great when framed.

Reproductions are the same size as the original harmonogram; they are printed to the highest standard and preserve all the detail of the original. The paper is Hahnemühle Photo Rag, one of the most sought-after fine art papers: a 308gsm, acid and lignin-free cotton paper with a neutral white point that is exceptionally good for detailed reproductions. The paper size for reproductions is 215x215mm.

Enlargements are also printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag; the paper is 50x50cm, although this may be trimmed slightly in one plane to fit the format of the harmonogram (e.g. a harmonogram which is in portrait format may be trimmed to 40x50cm). They are also printed to an exceptionally high standard.

Each reproduction and enlargement will be signed and dated on the back (unless otherwise stated) and a stamped certificate of authenticity on a self-adhesive label will be included with each order: this can be mounted onto the back-board of the frame.

    Some advice on framing and presentation. How a piece of artwork is framed greatly affects your perception of the work itself: putting a beautiful piece of work in a shoddily made or mismatched frame would detract from the work’s inherent quality.
