Q.It is so colorful. Are the actual colors really that intense?
A.Yes. The color of the Bloody Bay Wall mural is reproduced as faithfully
as possible to the original. Color reference targets, placed in
each frame, were used as a calibration.
Q.How are fine art prints of the mural produced?
A.Fine art reproductions of the mural are produced from a digital
source image that is approximately 850MB in raster size. This
very high resolution image is printed digitally with a six color
process using pigmented archival inks onto artists grade acid-free
canvas. The finished print is laminated with a thin vinyl material
in a process that seals that vinyl to canvas tightly and preserves
the canvas texture. The end result is an extremely sharp continuous
tone image that has a high degree of color accuracy to the original
subject illuminated with daylight balanced lighting.
Q.You say the mural image can be viewed life-size on my browser
screen. How big is life-size?
A.If you zoom into the extreme lower left corner of the mural image
you will find a scale calibrated in inches. Measure the scale
on your screen and zoom in or out to match the size. |
