About the Prints

Each print is a unique piece of art individually created and crafted under Peter’s supervision in Dublin. All imagery is printed on Baryta papers with museum quality archival permanence meaning no fading or degradation over time. Digital pigment prints are now recognised world wide for their superiority over other print technologies in terms of their wide colour gamut and their longevity. Today, most digital pigment prints are colour-stable for between 100 and 300 years, and print resolution is greater than can be resolved by the human eye. The Image Print RIP that we use is, to the best of our knowledge, is the only RIP that was designed specifically and solely for fine art, exhibition quality printing. Among its many benefits, it uses advanced 16-bit screening technology. The result is perfectly smooth transitions in tones, in shadows, and in other hard-to-reproduce transitions. On coated papers, and using 16-bit files, the results are outstanding in colour.

To purchase prints simply visit our gallery and choose a size from the drop down menu beside each image. Dimensions may vary slightly depending on how the image is cropped. We will always however keep the long side measurement consistent.
