The popular Hahnemühle 4”x6” photo cards that I used for this project came in an elegant metal tin. There are four popular Hahnemühle Fine Art paper types to choose from in the photo card selection: Photo Rag® 308, Museum Etching, FineArt Pearl and Photo Rag® Baryta. Hahnemühle wanted me to test out their photo card selection. So, for this series of prints I chose the semi-gloss Photo Rag® Baryta and a matt finish Photo Rag® 308. They were gorgeous on the first print out from my Epson SureColor P400 inkjet printer. I was very impressed.

Photo Rag® Baryta

The Hahnemühle Photo Rag® Baryta is a pure 100% cotton rag, 315 gsm, white high-gloss paper with an inkjet coating that has been perfectly optimised for Fine Art printing. The natural white paper comes in a nice warm shade of white and contains no optical brighteners, therefore I know the archival properties are excellent. The exquisite surface texture gives the paper a lovely art quality feel. In combination with the high-gloss premium inkjet coating, it produces stunning print results with outstanding reproduction of colour and detail, deep blacks and perfect contrasts. The combination of the cotton artist paper and the high-gloss inkjet coating lends itself to producing striking images without the glare. Photo Rag® Baryta is acid- and lignin-free paper and meets the most exacting requirements in terms of longevity. This paper has been a favorite of mine for years as I used the 24” rolls for my fine art wall prints. Its so nice to have a complimentary set of photo cards to go along with the large format prints.

Photo Rag® 308

The Hahnemühle Photo Rag® is one of the world’s most popular papers and has been a favorite of mine for years with my large format printer. Its so nice to have a complimentary set of photo cards to go along with my large format roll media. The photo cards are a 308 gsm, 100% cotton rag white artist’s paper. Combined with the matt premium inkjet coating, this paper produces outstanding prints that feature brilliant colours, deep blacks, striking contrasts and perfect reproduction of detail. This acid and lignin free photo card meet the most exacting requirements for longevity and is specially designed for Fine Art applications. As a special highlight, the Photo Rag® 308 is also available with hand-torn deckle edges on all four sides. The result is exclusive prints which truly come into their own in a shadow box frame. Both of these photo cards are perfectly suited as a mini-collection, individual greeting cards, invitations, thank-you cards or simply as a lovely gift. Each elegant metal tin contains 30 inkjet photo cards.
