Hahnemühle Photorag 

The super matte finish of Hahnemüle Photorag makes this paper one of our most popular papers amongst artists, illustrators & photographers. The paper gives muted blacks with even colour reproduction, and excellent detail. The surface has minimal texture with a chalky smooth cotton feel which creates smooth colour gradients. It has a delicate surface, so we recommend extra care when handling. Photorag is suitable for mounting but its cotton texture means edges can fray if not carefully handled. Museum quality for highest age resistance.

Hahnemühle Smooth Art Canvas

Our Canvas is a matte-coated inkjet canvas that distinguishes itself by a uniform and even weave/texture. The natural white canvas excels due to its creamy white tone that is perfectly suitable for art reproductions. Very deep blacks and vibrant colours lend your artworks an impressive visual appearance. The pleasantly smooth material is pliable and ideally suited for stretcher-frame systems. We coat our canvas with a UV protective layer to make sure they last as long as possible. Canvas' can then be stretched on to a wooden frame at 20mm, 30mm or 40mm depth for a beautiful finished look.
