Swan River Estuary - Western Australia
Price: $40.00 – $1,850.00
Canvas print edition – 50
This tiny juvenile seahorse (70mm high) was sheltering amongst the mooring lines of boats that use the Swan River near Bicton. It apparently felt quite safe between two ropes, one of which you can see covered in growth in the right bottom corner of the print. I was able to carefully angle my underwater flash to allow me to light it clearly without disturbing it into hiding.
The latest advances in technology allow these images to be printed using high quality pigment ink onto archival grade canvas. We believe this process has an archival permanence far higher than any traditional form of photographic enlargement with the minimum life rated to be in excess of 75 years. Each limited edition from the collection is printed individually, only as of when it is ordered by the client. After sealing to increase the archival properties of the print and then subsequent stretching over a quality timber frame, it is personally checked and approved by me before it is signed and numbered into its edition.
A signed authenticity certificate will come with each limited edition and contains additional information about the image. Print editions for the images currently within the collection are limited to either fifty, seventy five or one hundred prints, depending on the image. Once each edition of an image is sold out, a small proof run will be released and then it will not be printed again as a canvas.
Using the exact same pigment inks as the canvas prints, these are printed onto archival grade matte cottonrag.
Each comes complete with archival off-white mat-board plus a backing board, so that they are ready to frame and it is signed and dated with the year that the photograph was taken.
Using the exact same pigment inks as the canvas prints, these are printed onto archival grade matte cottonrag in the same manner as the matted prints but in larger size. They are then rolled up into a tube for easy shipping to you. Complete flexibility is provided for in that you can visit your nearest framing shop and decide on you own choice of matboard, frame and glass quality.
A contemporary take on the traditional block mounted print. Each timber block is created by us at the gallery with a smooth natural wood finish.
The new version of the print laminate now features a micro-weave texture with superior adhesion, improved edge finish and a scratch resistant satin top laminate, in essence it resembles a mini canvas look and feel to the image surface.
They can be purchased on their own or as a set of prints and can be displayed free-standing or hung from a single screw or nail. The perfect choice for a modern clean look but equally at home in a traditional setting, these blocks are the simple and cost effective way to purchase a Glen Cowans’ print without needing to factor in the cost of framing as for the matted prints.
Whilst we do carry some stock most canvas prints are printed only upon ordering, please allow up to two
weeks before shipment for printing, sealing and stretching of your print.
