What is an Archival Quality Print?
Colleen Gray Archival Prints Blog Post #AFAPColleen
The Art For Aid Project only sells archival quality prints, but why?The term “archival print” is the term used to describe fine art reproductions of museum quality. Using the finest quality papers and inks designed to resist colour fading, paintings are reproduced using a fine art printer with exceptionally high resolution. The end result of this process means that the artwork is 200 years light-fast (will not fade when properly displayed out of the direct impact of the sun). The paper used should be pH neutral, and the ink is pigment ink.
