Description
JimFlora.com is offering a limited-edition, archival-quality fine art print of an uncirculated, untitled, and undated tempera. The work is casually entitled Paddlewheeler to differentiate it from other untitled Flora works. Flora archivists believe that the work reflects Flora’s early 1950s style of maritime art and color palette.
Paddlewheeler has not previously been reproduced as a fine art print and was not published in any of our four Flora anthology books. The prints, produced by Flora archivist Barbara Economon, have been meticulously replicated from a high-resolution scan of the painting using state-of-the-art digital technology. All aspects of the original work have been retained, although some aging artifacts have been removed. Because the original work was unsigned, a compatible Flora painted signature from the 1950s has been added below the active art to officially “brand” the work.
Only twenty-five (25) prints of Paddlewheeler are being issued for this edition. Each print is hand-numbered in the lower right corner beneath the image and authenticated on the reverse with a stamped seal. Prices for prints will increase as the edition depletes.
The image area is approximately 11″ high x 16″ wide on a 13″ x 19″ untrimmed sheet. The unframed prints are on heavyweight (310g) mould-made William Turner stock, a natural white, 100% rag paper with a fine toothy surface manufactured by Hahnemühle, who are renowned for premium-grade archival papers. The edition was produced using Epson UltraChrome K3 Pigment Ink Technology, offering crisp resolution and assuring excellent longevity and durability.
The print will ship flat, securely packaged and guaranteed against bending or dents. Print includes a detailed, custom-printed one-sheet with instructions for the proper care of this fine art reproduction.
