WHAT IS A GICLEE?
CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY
Each Limited Edition Giclée in The Beatles in India collection is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. This certificate guarantees that you are in possession of an authentic, Limited Edition, fine art Giclée that has been hand-signed by Paul Saltzman, numbered and sealed with the Artist's Seal.
ARTIST'S SEAL
Each Limited Edition Giclée in The Beatles in India collection is hand-embossed by the artist, Paul Saltzman, using his own unique Artist's Seal. The Seal is placed in the lower right corner, outside of the image.

Each Giclée in the Open Editions is hand-sealed with the Artist's Seal in ink on the reverse side from the image.
WHAT IS A GICLÉE?
Giclée, French for "spray of ink" is a unique alternative method of fine art reproduction. The photographic Giclée prints in The Beatles in India collection represent a pioneering edge in the world of printmaking. Each original 1968 Ektachrome transparency image was first scanned into a computer, digitizing its information. Each image was then color corrected and cleaned-up using specially designed software. This allowed us to render each image as precisely as the day it was taken.

Our Giclée prints are made by Colorspan's high-performance Design-Winder printer on museum quality Arches Cold Press archival watercolor paper using Endurochrome dyes. These dye sets have been formulated by the same scientists who gave us Azo dyes, which comprise the well known Cibachrome technology. To create each Giclée, the printer's precision mechanical arm, with 384 microscopic ink jets, sprays five layers-using eight dye colors.

Independent testing by the Wilhelm Institute in Germany has shown that our combination of paper and dyes achieve a Giclée archival rating of 75 to 80 years—more than twice the rated life-span of a Cibachrome print.
