Photo Rag® Pearl 320 – a new FineArt paper from the Hahnemühle Digital FineArt Collection available from March 2007
Hahnemühle FineArt presents Photo Rag® Pearl 320 – its 24th quality in its TIPA award-winning premium product line. At the end of last year samples from the first production run were showcased first of all at PhotoPlus Expo in New York. The response to Photo Rag® Pearl 320 was so favourable that the paper is now being included in the Digital FineArt Collection. The new quality is a natural white, pure cotton rag paper with the soft, homogenous Photo Rag® surface treated with an innovative Pearl coating.
Many professional photographers and semi-professional users have been waiting impatiently for the launch of the natural white paper in the treasured Photo Rag quality with the Pearl coating. Photo Rag® Pearl 320 is reminiscent of Baryth paper with its warm tones.
The paper features a high Dmax and a large tonal value (colour gamut) range that enables the reproduction of the finest colour and black/white nuances in three-dimensional prints. The precious feel of a real cotton rag paper offers also a “4th dimension”: sensuality and emotion of Fine Art photographs and art reproductions.
Photo Rag® Pearl 320 is ideal for FineArt photo prints with both warm colour and grey tones, and also for art reproductions. Due to the exclusive use of cotton rag the premium paper is extremely age resistant and complies with the highest conservational standards. Its product features make it an ideal addition to the worldwide leading Digital FineArt Collection from Hahnemühle, and it is perfectly aligned for the latest printer and ink generation from Epson, Canon and HP. Photo Rag® Pearl, with a grammage of 320 gsm, is available from March in all the popular sheet and roll sizes.
