Damaged and disused walkway, Iquazu River, Argentina

On a visit to the immense waterfalls at Iguazú, approaching either from Brazil or Argentina, you will explore a network of walkways and circuits over, behind and below the falls, allowing for spectacular panoramic views overlooking the ferocious waters. In June 2014 the volume of water not only broke records but, unfortunately, many of the walkways leading to the Devil’s Throat. On the Argentinian side of the falls, the walkway overlooking the Devil’s throat was severely damaged by the power of the water, with several sections being washed away and many of the concrete pillars which secure the walkways needing repair. It was only fully reopened on 31 January 2015, after months of risky work on the edge of the waterfalls. The last time something like this happened was back in 1992, when the previous record of high water was set.

Our images are printed using premium K3 print technology on Hahnemühle Fine Art Torchon matt photographic paper. The special feature of the light white paper (285 g/m²) is its material: 100% alpha-cellulose defines the characteristically coarse texture. It gives your image a timeless, true-to-the-original charisma with a 3D effect. The hand-made style paper is highly water resistant and the use of premium K3 Epson prints ensures luminous colours and deep blacks for at least 100 years.

Textile print on stretcher frame – a fabric print using modern technology

Your image will be printed on fabric in razor-sharp quality and with brilliant colours and with its subtly textured surface; it transforms any photo into a unique gallery work that is full of life. During the thermal sublimation process, the colours are completely evaporated into the material. The resolution of up to 720 dpi and the enlarged CMYK colour spectrum allows accurate colour reproduction with clear contours. We only use textiles that are free of harmful substances and that have been awarded the internationally recognised Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification. Your image is mounted on the solid wood stretcher frame in its true form using only, high quality stretcher frames made of solid wood. The spruce wood comes from German suppliers and is sourced from sustainable forests. To give the stretcher frames permanent protection from losing shape, we triple reinforce the corners under the textile print using metal braces. When mounting on the stretcher frame we avoid using wedges – the frame is so stable that you won't need to loosen or tighten it at a later stage and it will arrive ready to hang.

For any other printing requirements, sizes or framing please contact us and we will be happy to help.
