Inspiration

Inspired by the citizens of Ireland who kept watch over our coast during World War II. There were 82 lookout posts built from Louth to Donegal, while #83 was added later. Iconic stone signs on the ground helped pilots navigate from above and round the clock surveillance ensured the coast was clear. 

Product Info

• Printed On Delicate 290gsm Bamboo Fine Art Paper. 

• Printed With Fade-Resistant Pigment Inks.

• Packaged With Sustainable Materials. 

This is a giclée print on sustainable 290gsm bamboo paper and is designed to be fade-resistant for 100 years. The paper mill I use, Hahnemuehle (Germany), makes the best fine art paper money can buy and because they're 400 years old they know how to make paper stand the test of time.

Bamboo is the most sustainable paper source due to its fast-growing nature, while water-based pigment inks are long-lasting and non-hazardous. With recycled paper supports and compostable packaging, this is an environmentally friendly print that upholds to museum quality standards. 

All prints are unframed.

What is a Giclée print? (zhee-klay)

This is a French term to describe a high-quality inkjet print made with tiny amounts of pigment ink on age-resistant archival paper. The pigment in the ink helps keep colours lightfast as long as the print is not placed in direct sunlight.
