What is the difference between Photographic Print and Metal Mount

This is a print on an archival lustre paper with a longevity rating around 100 years. The paper is a happy medium between glossy and matte papers with rich colours and contrast without the shine of a glossy paper. This medium requires framing before being hung on your wall. If you don't have much experience framing photographic paper, or art in general, we recommend consulting with your local framing shop before purchasing a large paper print. Often times the Metal artworks end up being less expensive than a framed large print. Different looks for different folks, but if the cost is a large consideration please check first.

This is a finished product that is ready to hang out of the box. These "HD" Metal panels are incredible in rich colours and contrast with the most "wow factor" of any finishing type we offer. The panels sit about 1" off the wall, hanging from a rear mounted aluminum frame, and appear to be floating once hung. The incredible finish on these pieces is available in matte or gloss. Gloss comes with the trade off of some glare from direct sunlight but has incredible depth of colour and contrast. Matte is our preference, with slightly less depth, but 90% less reflections than the gloss. Metal pieces can be framed in Black or White Aluminum float frames as well.
