How it is made

Every print available in MataneHome is from our own archive of photographic work. All our photographic prints are shipped directly to you.

We currently offer 2 product types for each art print as follows:

Print Only

Purchasing a fine art print from us gives you the opportunity to decide how you'd like to present our art on your wall.

We print all our art work using a gallery quality printing system. A premium quality heavyweight (308gsm) fine art print material, Hahnemuhle Photo Rag white cotton artist's paper, with a smooth, clean finish. This museum-quality acid-free paper is extremely consistent and works perfectly with large, full colour graphics or illustrations. The matte finish with a beautiful three-dimensional appearance and impressive depth emphasises different highlights and tones in the source artworks; helping to create stunning works of art.

We're also really proud of our eco credentials:

FSC approved or sustainably sourced paper
Printed using water based inks
Local fulfilment reduces carbon emissions

Black Frame

Alternatively, why not consider our photographic fine art prints which are mounted and framed for you?

We use frames with mounts. Our photographic art prints look superb with a mount to give a picture enough space to "breathe" in the frame, but not too wide that it disconnects the picture from the frame. We offer framed prints in various print sizes starting from 12" x 8" up to 29.1" x 19.4", giving you the most flexibility.

We use frames created from high-quality wood, milled with simple clean lines and presented with a satin finish. We include an off-white mount that will not discolour or fade with age.

All framed prints feature our premium fine art paper. This is a museum-quality paper which reproduces photography and artworks with exceptional tonality and renders sharp details with consistent flatness and accuracy.

We use a thick 1.4mm window mount cut from premium, textured mountboard. All mounts are "conservation grade", FSC certified, 100% acid free, and will not discolour or fade with age.

Protection from acidic compounds

Paper produced since the mid-19th century is made from wood pulp. As this slowly breaks down it naturally releases hydrochloric acid that causes paper to yellow/ brown and become brittle.

Use of an acidic mount can also lead to mat burn, leaving a visible yellow border on the print where it has come in to contact with the frame mount.

Therefore, we use acid-free conservation mounts in all of our frames as standard.
