Matte Art Paper
This archival fine-art media has the look and feel of old-world handmade paper and is great for producing sharp, accurate reproductions. The Giclee process, combined with a 12 mil thick paper, creates magnificent historical maps guaranteed not to fade, yellow, or crack for more than 100 years. The quality of these matte-finish maps is recognized by museums and galleries around the world.
Matte Canvas
Ideal for framing, the poly/cotton blend archival-grade canvas will satisfy even the most discriminating taste. This canvas has a medium gloss finish, and after printing via the Giclee process, your historical maps are guaranteed not to fade, yellow, or crack for more than 100 years. The result is truly magnificent and ideal for those seeking the look and feel of an actual painting.
