LookClickPrint And British Museum Announce Print License
Albuquerque, NM. -- LookClickPrint, Inc., a U.S. company
specializing in the creation of premium-quality reproductions
of images from museums and special collections worldwide,
is pleased to introduce the first in a series of on-going
projects with The British Museum.
The British Museum is currently featuring a magnificent
exhibition of work by the artist Albrecht Dürer
as a prelude to its 250th year anniversary in 2003. In
conjunction with this exhibition, LookClickPrint has
been selected by the Museum to create precise reproductions
of important Dürer images. These reproductions are
being produced in the United States and are available
for purchase to the general public.
This exhibition celebrates the outstanding representation
of Dürer prints, drawings and watercolors maintained
by British Museum, and is the first exhibition in Britain
devoted to Dürer in over thirty years.
LookClickPrint and the British Museum Company have been
working closely together to ensure that each print conforms
to the highest standards of quality and accuracy, and
truly expresses the unique beauty and exquisite detail
of the original work.
Combining the Old-World skills of a Master Printmaker
with state-of-the-art high resolution digital scanning
and printing techniques, LookClickPrint replicates the
subtle nuances of color, shading, and line that characterize
these great works of art. The quality is such that each
print must be clearly identified on the reverse as being
a reproduction rather than the original.
Mr. Andrew Thatcher, Managing Director of The British
Museum Company Limited, states that, “The British
Museum is delighted with the quality of the prints that
LookCLickPrint produced for our very successful exhibition
of the work of Albrecht Dürer”.
Other British Museum images are also currently represented
by LookClickPrint, including fascinating 16th century
drawings of North America and its people by the English
artist John White, and delicately colored Japanese woodblock
prints.
British Museum images are available for direct purchase
online through www.lookclickprint.com and www.thebritishmuseum.ac.uk/.
Prints can also be obtained in London from The British
Museum Company. Shops located in the Great Court and
off the Weston Great Hall. Branches are at 22 Bloomsbury
Street and Heathrow Terminal 4 airside.
