Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Baryta 315, 100% Cotton High Gloss, Natural White Inkjet Paper, 315gsm, 11x17", 25 Sheets

The Photo Rag Baryta 315gsm redefines the realm of high-quality printing with its exceptional combination of luxury and tradition. This OBA-free, 100% cotton rag paper boasts a natural-white hue, providing a neutral base that enhances the vibrancy of your prints without the influence of optical brightening agents. The barium sulfate (baryta) coating is a nod to the time-honored baryta boards, bestowing upon this paper a high-gloss finish that not only amplifies color fidelity but also augments the overall luminosity of the image.

Crafted for those who demand excellence, the Photo Rag Baryta 315gsm paper presents a very fine surface texture that, when paired with the baryta gloss, imparts a particularly expressive character to portraits. This distinctive quality ensures that each print captures the essence and depth of the subject. The paper's "wow" factor is unmistakable, especially in black and white prints, where it achieves an extremely high dmax, rendering the deepest blacks and the most subtle nuances of grey tones. Color images are equally impressive, displaying a lustrous quality that brings each photograph to life.

The premium inkjet coating of this paper is not only water-resistant but also engineered to support a three-dimensional color depth and an expansive color gamut, ensuring that each print offers high image definition that rivals the original scene or subject. The tactile experience of the ultra-smooth surface is unparalleled, inviting touch and closer inspection, a testament to the paper's high-end quality.

Incorporating barium sulfate in the premium inkjet coating replicates the iconic gloss of traditional baryth papers, making the Photo Rag Baryta 315gsm a genuine alternative for those seeking to bridge the gap between analog and digital printmaking. As an archival-quality medium, the 100% cotton composition is naturally pH neutral, which contributes to the longevity of the photographs. The durability of the paper is further enhanced by the long cotton fibers, which provide a robustness superior to papers made from wood fibers.

Ideal for photographers, artists, and printmakers who require a paper that can faithfully reproduce the depth, detail, and texture of their work, the Photo Rag Baryta 315gsm stands as a pinnacle of print media, offering both aesthetic beauty and lasting durability.
