ABOUT EXCLUSIVE EDITIONS
A Collector’s Guide to Fine Art Ownership

About the Finish
Our Premum Gallery Finish: Acrylic Medium
Our signature finish — and the gold standard of the gallery — is photographic paper face-mounted to acrylic. Optically printed onto Fuji Crystal Archival paper with a pearlescent base, this medium is extraordinarily reflective of light, producing the richest, most vibrant color achievable in photographic fine art. Colors shift and radiate according to the light source: they truly come alive. The back is fitted with a recessed frame that mounts to a cleat or z-bar, giving the print a stunning floating appearance off the wall. This is the finish Aaron uses for 95% of his gallery work — and the one we recommend for every serious collector.
- This medium is optically printed onto Fuji Crystal Archival paper Pearlescent base on Fuji paper is reflective of light
- The richest, most vibrant color technically possible. The result: colors light up and lay down according to the light source. They truly come alive
- Our most vibrant medium
- The back frame is a recessed frame on the back of the print that mounts to a cleat or z-bar, for easy hanging
- This gives a very beautiful and modern appearance of the print floating off the wall
