Our Craftsmanship
&
Materials
We are proud to work very closely with Ireland’s leading Hahnemühle Certified Fine Art Print Studio – Fine Art Print Studio Ireland
All of our Fine Art Giclée Prints are bespoke printed-to-order, made using Hahnemühle Photo Rag® 308gsm Fine Art Paper – a beautiful organic exhibition museum archival quality paper, with archival quality pigment inks.
Our mounts (which include 5mm backing board) that optionally come with prints are bespoke made to the highest standards from museum archival quality acid-free mountboard.
All of our prints available in both mounted and not mounted format will require framing.
Print & Mount Specifications
We currently offer up to three sizes for each of our artworks. If however, you would like to discuss other size options for any of our artwork, please don’t hesitate to contact us to discuss your needs, either via the contact page, or at enquiries@jackthompsonart.com
All the sizes shown are based on finished paper size, which includes a minimum of a one inch white border on the longest side of the artwork. Borders may be larger on two sides depending on the aspect ratio and cropping constraints of the artwork.
Custom mounts (if included on any orders) will be measured and cut to the following specifications:
Mount window – This will be calculated after measuring the final printed image size on the paper of your choosing, and in total will therefore be 10mm larger than the final printed image. This will reveal a 5mm white paper print border which will be visible from the front face of the mount.
Mount width – All standard mounts are cut with a 45mm width.
For further information on the sizes of specific artworks, please refer to the guides/information on each of the corresponding shop pages.
Please note – Room Mock-up’s throughout our website are purely for illustration purposes and to give a sense of our products in situ.
We endeavour to create an accurate representation of our Artworks on our website. However, owing to differences in the displays of varying devices and such like, they may not always represent a completely accurate view of how the physical prints will look on your wall.
Please note – Frames are not included with our artworks.
Caring For Your Artwork
To ensure the longevity and quality of your Jack Thompson Artwork, we recommend following the care instructions below which are also provided with your piece of artwork:
– When handling the artwork, ensure your hands are oil and cream free as both have the potential to stain;
– To avoid creasing the paper, use both hands to lift the prints, placing hands palm up underneath the print to lift;
– Do not rest anything on the print surface as this could mark the paper;
– Hang in a place with good natural light avoiding direct sunlight wherever possible, to avoid it fading over time;
– Alternatively use a spotlight or two to light your artwork;
– Keep in the acid free protective paper until framed.
Limited Edition Prints
Our Limited Edition Signed Prints are rather special and something to forever cherish.
We provide Certificates of Authenticity exclusively for our Signed Limited Edition range of prints. The certificates. also signed by Jack Thompson, include the edition number of the corresponding piece of Art, and/or are embossed with the official stamp of Jack Thompson Art Studios.
