Paris Street

Giclee Print

This view down a Paris street (with a very long name: Rue de la Montagne Sainte-Genevieve) was a tricky subject to draw. First, the street slopes down and away from the viewer, thereby adding complexity. Second, what seems to be two-point perspective is in fact many-points perspective because the buildings are not exactly parallel with one another. I reconnected with my architectural illustration roots drawing this scene — a challenging but very enjoyable puzzle to solve while enjoying an espresso and croissant.

About Giclee Prints

A Giclee print is the highest-quality print money can buy. The Giclee printer uses fade-resistant archival pigment-based inks on heavyweight (305gsm), acid-free paper to ensure that the colors hold true over time (a century and beyond when properly displayed).

This process costs significantly more than other types of printing (such as lithograph or other digital print) due to the premium inks used (12 pigment-based inks as compared to the four lesser-quality inks of other printers). This results in colors that are almost indistinguishable from the original.

Each Giclee print arrives to you ready for framing.
