What is a Giclée?

Day Hill Studio Fine Art is pleased to introduce their newest addition to the Gallery. Our Heirloom Limited Editions offer the most advanced technology available today in the Fine Art Reproduction industry. We use only the finest imported European papers and pigmented inks.

These fine reproductions are each signed and numbered by the artist surrounded with 4" museum quality hand cut double matting and presented in a classic frame suitable for any interior decor. Also available in canvas editions that look remarkably like the original painting.

Cape Cod Prints make wonderful gifts for any occasion!

A signed Certificate of Authenticity is included with each Limited Edition Print.

Giclée is a French word meaning, "a spraying of pigments" (pronounced "zhee-clay"). With the advent of Giclée, the art of reproducing fine art works has become even more precise. Each piece of archival paper or canvas is carefully hand mounted onto a drum, which rotates during printing. Exact calculations of hue, value and density are produced by directing over four million droplets of pigment through four printer nozzles. This produces a combination of 512 chromatic changes with over three million color possibilities.

Giclées have the highest apparent resolution today-as high as 1,800 dpi-because a variable dot size is used to create the density of color on the print, instead of equally sized dots which can only achieve an effect of 600-1000 dpi. In addition, since no screens are used, the prints have a higher apparent resolution than lithographs and a color range that exceeds that of serigraphy. Displaying the full color spectrum, Giclée prints capture every nuance of an original and have gained worldwide acceptance from artists, museums and the finest galleries.

Day Hill Studio Fine Art has been consistently voted as one of Cape Cod's most inviting art galleries. If you are on Cape Cod and would like to experience Fine Art in a relaxed setting, a large collection of limited edition Cape Cod prints, or talk directly with the artists, this is the gallery to visit.

The art gallery is open year 'round and Julia O'Malley-Keyes, owner and one of the gallery artists is always available to speak with you about your next fine art or limited edition print purchase.
