Prints and Thumbnails

Here are some scenes and images from the most popular Seamus Heaney poems. Some are from his local perspective, some from his international perspective and there is a couple which are less well known but which made good subjects for a painting.

These are Giclée prints on Baryta paper and are thus thick and heavy. The Giclée process renders a print very close to the original such that it is often mistaken for an original. They are available in two sizes, the size of the original painting 20 inches by 30 inches or, in A2 which is 16.5 inches by 23.4 inches i.e., 42 cm by 59.4 cm.

Giclée (Zhee-clay) Fine Art Prints are high resolution digital prints on paper or canvas. Giclée prints render deep saturated colours retaining minute and subtle tints, blends and detail. Giclée prints are growing rapidly in popularity in the print market, over taking traditional methods like lithographs and screen printing. It has now become the most popular and requested way for artists, galleries and publishers to make reproductions.
