So, just WHAT IS a Giclee print?

Adapted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

Giclée (pronounced "zhee-clay") is an invented name for the process of making Fine Art Prints from
a digital source using ink-jet printing. The word "giclée" is derived from the French word "le gicleur"
meaning "nozzle", or more specifically "gicler" meaning "to squirt, or spray". It was coined in1991 by
Jack Duganne, a printmaker, to represent any inkjet-based digital print used as fine art.

The word "giclée", as a fine art term, has come to be associated with prints made with archival
meaning stable, fade-resistant inks and is often used in galleries to denote such prints. Dramatic
improvements have been made in recent years to inks used and the paper or canvas upon which
the images are printed. Recent tests show that giclee-quality inkjet prints can have a light-fast life
expectance of 100-200 years, if kept out of direct sunlight. when prints are produced on high quality
paper or canvas, the print should possess archival standards of permanence comparable to, or better
than other collectible artwork. The visual qualtiy of the print is extrememly high and the color saturation
and definition is excellant.

The paper/canvas/inks are given a display permanence rating by Wilhelm Imaging Research company.
According to them, archival quality means:

Displayed under glass with care for no direct sunlight, in normal lighting conditions,
the image can be expected to maintain quality for 62 years. (Since canvas is not displayed
under glass, the key point here is no direct sunlight - normal lighting.)

Displayed with UV glass, over 100 years. (The prints on canvas have UV protective coating applied.)

Unframed, (unprotected from UV) in a bright room, 37 years.

In dark storage, with 50% - 75% humidity, for 200 years.
