Himeji Castle, Himeji, Japan

Himeji Castle, located in the city of Himeji, Japan, is regarded as the finest surviving example of prototypical Japanese castle architecture. Originally constructed in 1346 (and like seemingly all castles, temples, etc. in Japan, rebuilt, added to, etc. many times since), it has amazingly survived for now more than 700 years, remaining intact despite the WWII bombing of Himeji, and the 1995 Great Hanshin earthquake. Due to its white color, it is frequently called the “White Egret Castle” or “White Heron Castle.” Since it is built on a hill, most views of this historic castle are from below, but an adjacent city park on a hill allows one, after a bit of an uphill hike, to view the castle from the same elevation as its ground floor. This photo was taken in the fall – notice the foliage on the bottom of the scene? - and I like that it shows both the historic castle and the modern metropolis that now surrounds it.

Fujiflex Fine Art Print

A museum-quality print on Fujiflex Crystal Archive paper, one of the finest photographic papers available. Its ultra-smooth, high-gloss surface produces exceptionally rich color, deep blacks, and a warm luminous quality that makes images appear to glow from within. Prints arrive unframed and unmatted, ready to be displayed in the frame and presentation of your choosing.

Please allow 1-3 weeks for delivery.

Select a print size:

Aluminum print with floating frame

Your photo is printed directly onto specially coated aluminum, with dyes infused into the surface rather than applied on top. The result is a luminous, almost glowing quality that paper simply cannot match, with exceptional color depth and vibrant detail. A float mount on the back suspends the print off the wall, giving it a clean, frameless, gallery-quality look straight out of the box with no additional framing needed.

The default finish is glossy. If you prefer matte or semi-gloss, you must specify your choice in the comments section at checkout, otherwise your print will be produced with a glossy finish.

If your photo has an edge of 16 or more inches, it will include a signature and edition number.

Please allow 1-3 weeks for delivery.

Custom sizes are available. However you want this done, I'll work with you. Contact me here, or call 970-702-4371.

Aluminum print with visible frame

Your photo is printed directly onto specially coated aluminum, with dyes infused into the surface rather than applied on top. The result is a luminous, almost glowing quality that paper simply cannot match, with exceptional color depth and vibrant detail. The print is finished with a hand-selected Larson-Juhl frame in either the Belmont (rich wood veneer, modern profile) or Antica (traditional burl wood) style. (Click here for additional information on visible frames) The piece arrives ready to hang.

Please specify your preferred frame style and color in the comments at checkout. (Click here for additional information on visible frames) If none is specified, I will choose what I feel best suits the image.

Please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery.
