1998 - 2015
When we began working with ink jet print, we could not find a paper that were in
a position to offer a quality standard comparable to that offered by the traditional
materials we had used before.
I contacted the Cartiere Magnani and I found a big willingness to cooperate in order to realize a new paper, the Cotton Base, 280gr, natural white.
Then, thanks to the cooperation of Kentmere, we have realized the Standard Coated, provided with a special emulsion that, letting the ink to filter, allows
to obtain the correct depth of the image and the best tone range.
From May 2008 we'll use a new hand paper produced for us by Cartera Aetna.
100% cotton, not coated, 400gr.
Suitable for our new bw warm tone printing system and color painting.
A dedicated emulsion was formulated allowing color prints and final wax coating.
Large format, 75x100 cm.
Producing the FineArtClassic, we used the Cotton Base for silver printing.
The silver coating was made by Kentmere.
We used also some papers from the stock of Archivio Magnani, Pietrabuona.
