Wall art of Red Crowned Crane in Hokkaido, Japan by Brent Goldman Photography

Print Options

We currently offer two limited edition print options at Brent Goldman Photography to display the artwork in a modern, striking manner: FujiFlex Crystal Archival paper and Gallery Acrylic. The main difference between the two is that the Gallery Acrylic option is frameless and ready-to-hang, while the FujiFlex paper will require matting and framing. Both options will be signed and numbered with the edition and will ship for free in the US.

Gallery Acrylic

The photograph is first printed on brilliant FujiFlex Crystal archival paper, then face mounted to 1/4-inch acrylic glass, and finally encapsulated by a 1/8-inch durable backing to provide stability. A rear floating frame is included so the print will be ready-to-hang upon arrival.

FujiFlex prints surpass other printing paper bringing unbelievable resolution, clarity, and vibrancy. Acrylic glass allows the light to bounce through the surface which provides an amazing near 3-D glowing effect, making the image come alive. Combined, you have the ultimate viewing experience.

Please note that the acrylic image displayed may not appear scaled correctly. See main product image above for correct scaling.

Fujiflex Crystal Archive

FujiFlex paper is the perfect companion for landscape photography. The paper features polyester-based silver halide material to yield a high gloss print with rich tones, superb clarity, and deep contrast.

This print option will need to be matted and framed prior to being hung on the wall. Print sizes over 40-inches will be shipped in a tube.

How to Care for Your Artwork

After receiving your artwork, there are a few steps you should take to ensure the longevity and preservation of your purchase for years to come.

Avoid Direct Sunlight

Sunlight contains Ultraviolet (UV) waves which can fade and yellow your artwork over time. Our acrylic prints have UV filtering which filter out 95 percent of the UV rays. Even so, it is best to avoid hanging your artwork where direct sunlight will contact it. In addition to sunlight, temperature fluctuations will cause the art materials to expand and contract. This can breakdown the paper pigments and warp both acrylic and wood surfaces. Temperature should be controlled below 77 degrees F.

Humidity

It is important to control the humidity levels in the room where the artwork is being displayed. Museums keep their artwork at 55 percent relative humidity. Mold growth can occur when relative humidity levels exceed 70 percent. Organic materials, such as paper, acrylic, and wood, are hygroscopic - meaning they can absorb and give off moisture. Fluctuations in humidity cause the materials to swell and shrink. It is recommended to keep the relative humidity fluctuations less than 5 percent. Each material responds differently to the humidity changes which can lead to dimensional changes such as bowing, cracking, and warping. Our acrylic prints have the paper face-mounted to the acrylic and humidity fluctuations can introduce tension between the surfaces leading to damage. If you are unsure what the relative humidity levels are in your home, you can purchase an inexpensive thermohygrometer which will provide the temperature and humidity amount and show daily averages.

Cleaning

You should always use a soft microfiber cloth to clean your artwork. Moisten the cloth with a little water to remove the dirt. Avoid using paper towels because they can easily scratch the acrylic surface. Also avoid any alcohol-basedand ammonia-based cleaners as they can damage the acrylic surface and cause a cloudy appearance.
