Giclée printing: Watch the video
We print the reproductions on museum-quality canvas of 380g. Printing a Giclée is done with the utmost precision. The HDR inks are sprayed on the canvas layer by layer, with 800 nozzles per colour x 10 channels for a total of 8000 nozzles. This technique guarantees over 100 years of colour permanence. The end result is characterized by great fineness and image depth, very high sharpness, detail and deep colours.

Varnish: Watch the video
We then apply several coats of varnish by hand to make the colours come to life and to protect against moisture and UV light. The canvas is stretched by hand on stretcher bars made with timber from sustainable forestry.

About the original artwork
Self-portrait as the Apostle Paul

This reproduction on canvas of Self-portrait as the Apostle Paul by Rembrandt van Rijn is made with the greatest possible care to ensure that the colours are very close to the original painting that is hanging in the Rijksmuseum. Human. In one of his last self-portraits, Rembrandt depicted himself as the apostle Paul. In no other self-portrait do we see such quizzically raised eyebrows. We are challenged to think about this individual. Velázquez also painted a little person, in his role of court jester. The Spanish master, however, saw beyond the stereotype and spotlighted the actual human being.
