Albert Bierstadt 'Sunrise On Lake Tahoe, California, 1872' Canvas Art,18x24

Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting. Though not the first artist to record these sites, Bierstadt was the foremost painter of these scenes for the remainder of the 19th century. In obtaining the subject matter for these works, Bierstadt joined several journeys of the Westward Expansion. Bierstadt was part of the Hudson River School, not an institution but rather an informal group of like-minded painters. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. An important interpreter of the western landscape, Bierstadt, along with Thomas Moran, is also grouped with the Rocky Mountain School. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors.
