The serigraph is based on an original painting, but sometimes not an exact duplication in size and / or appearance as theartist may sometimes make subtle changes from the original painting to theserigraph. The process startswith the original painting given to a "master printer oratelier" who will make hand-drawn positives produced for each color in theoriginal painting. There could literally be dozens of separatescreens produced to represent each color which ultimately is dependent on howmany colors were used in the original painting. The next step is theproofing of the cut silkscreens by the atelier and then sent to the artist forapproval. The artist makes the necessary adjustments to the proofs andthen the edition is ready for the application of paint. The paintwill be applied to a cotton-woven paper and hand-pulled one sheet and one colorat a time by the atelier. After all the layers of colored paint areapplied, the serigraphs are then set to dry. The artist will thenhand-sign in pencil the serigraph in the lower right corner and generallynumber the serigraph on the left-side bottom corner or the middle bottom.We also carry authentic original prints 300 years old or less in great condition, already framed or not, such as: Albin, Audubon, Baron, Barraband, Bertuch, Brodtmann, Brown, Buffon, Cassel, Curtis, Cuvier, Donovan, Edwards, Fitch, Frisch, Grandville, Harrison, Walter Hood, Latham, Linden, Linnaeus, Loddiges, Martinet, McKenney, Morris, Munting, Redoute, Reinchenbachia, Schreber, Schubert, Selby, Shaw and Nodder, Van Geel, Warner, etc.... etc...
