Behind the print

All HOPONIT artworks are produced using the giclée printing method – a high-quality, archival process that delivers rich colour, fine detail, and exceptional longevity.

Archival quality Made to last for decades without fading when properly cared for.

Museum-grade papers We print on two carefully selected fine art paper types, both acid-free and designed for long-term preservation.

True to the artist’s vision Colours are vibrant, tonal ranges are deep, and details are sharp.

Paper Types

We offer two premium paper stocks, chosen to best complement the artwork:

Ilford Smooth Pearl 310gsm – Professional-grade photo paper with a smooth pearl finish that delivers superb clarity, sharpness, and vibrant colour, while resisting glare and fingerprints for a true photographic look and feel.

Ilford Galerie Fine Art Textured Silk 270gsm – 25% cotton, 75% cellulose matt paper with a soft texture that delivers sharp detail, rich contrast, and warm tones, making it ideal for both colour and black-and-white prints.
