Print Type

Metallic Paper – Print Only

Matt’s Limited Edition prints are printed on Chromajet Metallic Pearl produced on an Epson 9070 inkjet printer. Chromajet Metallic is a flat, stiff, middle-weight paper with a metallic effect gloss finish. The paper has a neutral white base and an instant dry, micro-porous coating. This paper has a wide colour gamut and a high D-MAX which delivers beautiful images, both in colour and B&W. It produces extended contrast, exceptional colours, deep blacks and clean whites. This technology results in what are arguably the highest quality photographic prints in the world.

The print will arrive in a protective tube, rolled up. We will send you instructions to provide your framer at the time of purchase.

 

There are two types of Acrylic Facemount options offered by Matthew Duke Photography.

Acrylic Facemount – Premium

Acrylic face mounting is one of the most impressive and striking ways to display your photographic print. Your print is mounted behind acrylic and the back is covered with specially treated aluminium. This process will completely protect your image from front to back. Your image is mounted edge to edge and creates a beautiful frameless finishes. Each piece is professionally finished with hand-polished edges. We use 4.5mm optically clear, Museum Grade Acrylic which has 99% UV protection.

Acrylic is extremely safe to use, as it is shatter resistant and provides exceptional protection from sunlight, weather and temperature extremes. Once hung, your print floats approximately 16mm off if you follow our simple instructions for hanging your new facemount. You can be assured that you will receive an absolutely perfect, high-quality finish. The result is truly spectacular.

Acrylic Facemount – Standard

For those on a limited budget, we have introduced this option to provide a high-quality product that is still affordable.

We still use a 4.5mm optically clear piece of Acrylic and the print is printed on a high-quality metallic paper. This option is much lighter than the Acrylic Facemount – Premium product as it uses a white vinyl backing instead of treated aluminium.

While the finish is not as premium, our customers are absolutely happy with this product. As the finished product is much lighter it is more cost-effective to ship and easier to hang when it arrives.

 

Canvas – SPECIAL ORDER REQUEST ONLY – Use the Contact Us page

Matt uses the highest quality Epson UltraChrome HDR inks and Hahnemühle Leonardo Canvas for his canvas prints. Each order is custom made to order by hand and will arrive assembled to the frame ready to hang. You will not be disappointed with the outstanding quality.
