PAPER & PRINT

Giclée-printed with archival pigment inks on Hahnemühle German Etching, a 310 gsm fine-art paper with a soft, etching-style texture. Sizes 8×10, 11×14 (the core size), and 16×20 fit standard frames. Printed with a clean edge for easy framing.

SHIPPING & RETURNS

Each Relic is made when you order it, then shipped flat or rolled with tracking. Because prints are made to order, I can’t accept change-of-mind returns. If yours arrives damaged or misprinted, contact me, and I’ll make it right.

PROVENANCE

The illustration is adapted from Provence or French Rose, a stipple and line engraving with hand coloring after Pierre-Joseph Redouté, from Les Roses, 1817–1824. The source impression is in the Cleveland Museum of Art (1943.139, Gift of The Print Club of Cleveland, for the Donald Gray Memorial Collection), which catalogs it under Henri-Joseph Redouté, via the museum’s open-access collection. It has been digitally adapted and rendered in sepia for this print. Poem © Pablo Camacho. Relic Nº 022 in the Relics series, Dawn collection.

ABOUT THE SERIES

Why a Relic?

Each Relic treats a single poem like an artifact recovered from an old archive. It’s paired with a digitally adapted antique illustration, numbered and finished with a colophon and my seal. Each print is made to order on textured fine-art paper. The number marks its place in a growing collection, organized by the hours of the night.
