Printing
All prints are made to exhibition standards on archival fine art rag papers using archival inks. I print on matte paper for a look which is similar to Byron Harmon’s original prints. The tested archival life of the papers I choose to print on is 100 years or longer. I can provide either neutral black-and-white prints or warm toned prints similar to the historic chestnut brown Van Dyck colouring which Byron also printed in. I generally print images with a lot of snow and ice in neutral tones and other images in warm tones but any image may be printed either way so please indicate your preference.
Certificate
I provide a signed certificate with each image which includes a bit of story about the image.
Shipping
Smaller prints are shipped flat and larger prints are shipped rolled. The prints are well packaged to ensure their safe arrival but should the unlikely occur and a print be damaged in shipping I will provide a replacement at no additional cost. I generally ship by Canada Post Expedited or Express mail so that tracking information is available for all shipments.
Matting and Framing
I do not offer a matting or framing service but can offer the following recommendations.
• Prints should be matted and framed with archival materials.
• Conservation glass will protect the photograph from UV radiation as well as reducing glare. Non-glare glass is not recommended.
• Large prints can be mounted on archival substrates such as Dibond, a material which uses a thin sheet of aluminum sandwiched between archival paper. The surface is then protected with a coating and framed. This presentation is much lighter than framing large prints with glass. • Do not hang your print in an area which receives direct sunlight.
I hope you enjoy your Byron Harmon print for many years to come.
