What is a Giclee Print?
From the French word verb “to spray”, the word
Giclee (jee-clay) is used to describe a certain standard in printmaking
technology.
The production offices are located in North
Carolina. All active and post production work is done at this facility.
Blice Edwards works closely with their printers in all aspects of
production to insure the best possible reproduction of their work.
They first produce an original painting, in this
case, oil on canvas, like the one you see that hangs above the fireplace
in the Purgatory Golf Club Dining Room. They then have it
professionally photographed, and then the negative is sent to their
production facility to be scanned by a high resolution scanner, and put
on a CD. The image is transferred to a computer so that color
corrections can be made to insure the best possible matching to our
original image. Once the color corrections are completed to our
satisfaction, the image is ready to print. In Giclee printing, the ink
is actually sprayed onto the canvas or water color paper using inkjet
technology. The color and vibrancy is so astounding it often fools the
eye of the beholder, making it almost impossible to distinguish the
print from the original.
ABOUT EDITION SIZES

giclee’s published from an original work of art. The total number of
giclee’s is fixed by the artist in order to create a scarcity of the
print. The artist’s signature is usually found in one the lower corners
of the gilcee and is accompanied by a number that looks like a
fraction. The top number indicates the number of gilcee and the bottom
indicates the number of gilcee’s in the edition.
The cost for the the 40 x 28 size print, which is the same size as
the original is $1,200 and for a 24 x 17 is $700.
