Description
Illustration with passe-partout in frame | Hazelnut tree
This hazelnut tree can be found at the bottom of the family house, in the hills in Monteu da Po. In that spot is a row of hazelnut trees that look more like large shrubs. In August it's harvest time, the hazelnuts are delicious, but you have to be quick because the squirrels love them too!
Prints
- The prints with hand-drawn illustrations are all inspired by nature and slow life.
- Collection 1 consists of eight different illustrations, available in three sizes.
- The prints are printed on 295 gr/m² paper in a small printing house in the Netherlands.
- Small edition, only 45 prints per size were printed.
- The paper is made from agricultural waste and is 100% recycled and tree-free. The pulp (bagasse) creates a natural brown shade and it has fine splinters, giving each print a unique look.
- The printing method with a digital press is based on a dry toner and electrostatic attraction with no chemical process taking place. Printing plates are no longer needed, which prevents waste of ink and paper.
Wooden frame
- The illustrations are carefully and manually framed by a professional framer in the Netherlands.
- The works are provided with beautifully coloured acid-free passe-partouts. The colours are inspired by Italian surroundings and are available in six colours.
- The frames are provided with high-quality museum glass (also called 'TrueVue' glass) to prevent discoloration and reflection and will therefore last for years.
- The frames are made of Durian wood (with MTTC certificate). This wood comes from the durian tree and are cleared in orchards and plantations after they stop producing fruit (after around 30 years). The supplier has been purchasing their own forests for several years and they have recently started using their own wood. After harvesting, new trees are planted. In a few years they will be completely self-sufficient for their entire production.
- The frames are provided with a transparent water-based protective layer.
