What is a Giclée print?

Giclée comes from the French word meaning literally ‘to squirt’ referring to the process in which the ink is laid down on the paper. The print heads on an inkjet printer spray out a pattern of very small dots that make up the final image. Giclée is the name commonly given to an inkjet limited edition reproduction of an artwork, photograph or digitally created work. It will be printed on archival grade artist’s quality coated paper, with pigment (UV stable) inks.
