From the description I got the impression that the printmaking process used here, Giclee, was something special but I really can't tell the difference between it and a photograph printed on canvas.  One corner of the print was a bit worn but I dabbed a bit of paint on it and it looks fine.  I do love the bright colors and wish I had bought the largest possible size instead of the midsize one.  It's that kind of picture...  Nevertheless, I remain satisfied and happy with the purchase.
