Irises have long been admired for their elegant form and striking colour, with their distinctive petals creating an almost sculptural appearance. Their deep violet-blue blooms are accented by flashes of gold, drawing the eye toward the centre of each flower.
Photographed against a dark background, these irises take on a dramatic, almost painterly quality. The absence of surrounding foliage isolates the flowers and emphasizes the delicate folds, rich colour, and graceful movement of each bloom.
For this photograph, Glenn Theal Photography recommends Canson Arches 88, whose understated matte finish complements the rich blues, delicate textures and dramatic, painterly quality of the image.
This fine-art photograph is available on the following paper:
Canson® Infinity Arches® 88 – is made in the tradition of French master papermakers since 1492 using a traditional method to produce a 100% cotton, ultra-smooth surface finish with a pure white tone. Most importantly, Arches®88 is completely free of any optical brighteners, ensuring lasting beauty of the artwork it holds. This matt paper produces photographs with excellent colour rendition, good contrast with deep blacks and natural, bright whites.
Canson® Infinity Platine Fibre Rag – is a 100% cotton Platinum paper combined with the latest paper coatings to produce a traditional darkroom-style paper. Platine Fibre Rag provides a satin feel similar to that of a baryta style paper without the use of optical brighteners that reduce the longevity of printed artwork.
Hahnemühle® Photo Rag® Metallic – is a 100% cotton FineArt paper with a natural white tone and a specially formulated metallic coating coating that produces a distinctive silver-metallic shimmer. The paper contains no optical brighteners and combines the characteristic feel and subtle surface structure of the Photo Rag® family with a luminous metallic finish. This paper produces photographs with bold, vibrant colours, deep blacks and excellent colour, tonal and detail reproduction, while its metallic surface adds depth and brilliance to images featuring strong colour, reflections, architecture and dramatic contrast.
