Open Edition Artworks are prints that are not limited in number, meaning they can be reproduced and purchased by multiple customers. Unlike limited editions, there is no cap on the number of prints produced. This makes them more accessible and affordable while maintaining the same high quality. Open edition prints are a fantastic way to bring the beauty of New Zealand landscapes into your home without the exclusivity of limited-run pieces. They offer a flexible option to elevate your space while supporting a New Zealand-based artist.

Artwork Sizes & Best Fit for Your Space

Each artwork in our collection is carefully crafted to suit a specific aspect ratio, ensuring the perfect balance of composition and visual impact. Whether it’s a square format (1:1), an ideal choice for creating symmetry and focus; the classic 4:5 ratio, which adds a touch of height and elegance; the cinematic 16:9 ratio for a widescreen effect that enhances landscapes and expansive scenes; or the strikingly wide 17:6 ratio that immerses you in panoramic vistas, each piece is designed to fit seamlessly into its intended format. This careful consideration of aspect ratio allows the artwork to be displayed in a way that complements its original composition, bringing harmony to your space.

To ensure the longevity of your artwork from Stephen Milner Photography, it’s essential to follow these care instructions:

Handling Your Artwork:

• Always handle your artwork with clean, dry hands, or wear cotton gloves to prevent oils or dirt from transferring onto the surface.
• Avoid touching the printed surface directly, especially for fine art paper prints, as fingerprints and smudges can be difficult to remove.
• When unpacking your artwork, place it on a clean, flat surface to prevent scratches or damage.

Acrylic Prints:

• Acrylic prints are water-resistant, making them easy to clean. Use a soft, damp microfiber cloth to gently wipe the surface.
• For fingerprints or smudges, use an acrylic-safe cleaner with a non-abrasive cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could scratch or damage the print.
• Direct sunlight should be avoided for all artwork, as prolonged exposure can lead to color fading.

Canvas Prints:

• Dust canvas prints gently with a soft, dry cloth or feather duster. Avoid using water or cleaning solutions that may damage the ink or fabric.
• Like other artworks, avoid direct sunlight to prevent colors from fading and the canvas from warping over time.

Fine Art Paper Prints:

• Fine art paper prints should be framed by a professional framer for best results. They will ensure the print is well-protected and displayed correctly.
• Follow the framer’s care instructions, which should include using UV-protective glass or acrylic to shield the print from light.
• Avoid direct sunlight and high humidity, as both can cause damage to the print, including fading and discoloration.

General Environmental Care:

• Ensure your artwork is displayed in areas with stable temperature and humidity. Avoid hanging art in spaces with high moisture levels, like bathrooms, to prevent potential damage.
• Avoid direct sunlight for all types of artwork, as it can cause fading or deterioration over time.

By following these care guidelines and avoiding direct exposure to sunlight and harsh environments, you can preserve the quality and vibrancy of your artwork for many years. For further assistance, feel free to contact us!
