Alfred Thompson Bricher was a painter associated with White Mountain art and the Hudson River School. A self-taught luminist, he explored the effects of light and how it reflected, refracted, and absorbed on landscapes and seascapes. Bricher's love of maritime life led to him purchasing a home in the New Dorp section of Staten Island, where he lived and painted until his death at age 71.
Giclee (jee-clay) is an advanced printmaking process for creating high quality fine art reproductions. The attainable excellence that Giclee printmaking affords makes the reproduction virtually indistinguishable from the original piece. The result is wide acceptance of Giclee by galleries, museums, and private collectors. Gallery wrap is a method of stretching an artist's canvas so that the canvas wraps around the sides and is secured a hidden, wooden frame. This method of stretching and preparing a canvas allows for a frameless presentation of the finished painting.
