The Angel of Death, Print

In college I worked in a print studio, and on jobs that required the best materials in the world, we used Hahnemühle paper. Hahnemühle has been making art papers in Germany since 1587, and their beautifully soft, sturdy papers are beloved around the world by print nerds like me. Obelisk's prints use Hahnemühle's 308gsm Photo Rag. It's a heavy, stable stock with a subtle tooth and velvety surface that reveals its 100% cotton composition without distracting from the image. It's vegan certified, archive-stable, and provides a perfect surface for Giclée printing.

To ensure the best possible reproduction, Obelisk uses Giclée printing (pronounced gee-klay), which uses pigment-based archival inks instead of standard dye-based inks, resulting in more vivid, fade-resistant colors and deeper blacks. Giclée printing also operates at a higher resolution than standard printing, so printed images are more detailed and gradients are smoother.
