Medium / Large Silver Gelatin Prints: The gold standard in black and white printing which surpasses archival pigment prints in longevity, quality and detail. Premium Edition Platinum Palladium Prints: The prints selected are made in a darkroom and were very popular in the late 19th century. It uses platinum palladium as the light-sensitive material and has the very best archival rating of any print over 2,000+ years.

Your certificate of authenticity will be shipped separately from your print and in most cases will ship directly from the gallery. The Gallery is more than happy to provide clients with the next available edition number, however, the Gallery can only guarantee the specific edition number the client will receive once payment has been received.
