"Our Lady of Guadalupe Mosaic" Collage of Jesus Christ and Virgin Mary Photos by Michael Verlangieri. This is a collage comprised of over 4,000 pictures! From a distance you see one large image, but up close you see all the thousands of photos that make up the design. Limited to 100 prints, each print is hand signed and numbered by the artist. The image size is 18 x 24 inches. The paper size is 22 x 30 inches. The image is printed using specially engineered ink technology for optimum image quality and over 100 years of lightfastness. I use the same printer as the Museum of Fine Art in Boston. The image is printed "Giclee". Giclee is a high-resolution digital print that is created by a series of tiny jets spraying millions of droplets of printing ink onto the highest quality archival artists' paper. The spray generates more than four million droplets of ink per second; hence, the name Giclee, which is French for "fine spray." A precise computer control panel insures consistency of hue, value, and density. Giclees are of such phenomenal quality that even some art experts have difficulty telling a Giclee from an original. This fact has prompted museums and collectors to substitute Giclees for originals, thereby safeguarding priceless works in vaults. Since the Giclee process produces a combination of 512 chromatic changes (with over three and one-half million colors possible) and the resolution is two to three times that of lithographs or serigraphy, a Giclee captures every nuance of an original.Guaranteed to be in mint/new condition. The result is a stunning work, handsome, moody and would look great with any decor.
