Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.

Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Travel Views of Japan and Korea," captured by Arnold Genthe in 1908, is a captivating photographic series showcasing the unique beauty and cultural richness of two ancient Asian nations. This collection, now held at the Library of Congress, offers a rare glimpse into the early 20th century, providing a window into a time when these countries were just beginning to open up to the Western world. Genthe's images transport us to the tranquil gardens of Japan, where stone lanterns cast a soft, ethereal glow upon ornamental trees and plants. The peaceful setting is a testament to the deep connection between the Japanese people and their natural surroundings, as well as their reverence for the spiritual and religious aspects of their heritage. In contrast, the series also features striking images of Korea, where traditional architecture and modern buildings coexist. The contrast between the ancient and the contemporary is evident in the juxtaposition of traditional shrines with more modern structures, highlighting the country's unique blend of history and progress. The photographer's masterful use of lighting and composition adds depth and dimension to each scene, creating a sense of timelessness that resonates with viewers today. The nitrate negative process used to capture these images imbues them with a rich, textured quality that brings the past to life. Whether it's the intricate design of a Japanese lantern or the serene beauty of a Korean garden, Genthe's Travel Views of Japan and Korea offers a visual feast for the senses, inviting us to explore the history, culture, and natural wonders of these two remarkable countries.
