The most important artistic movement of Greek art in the 19th century was academic realism, often called in Greece "the Munich School"" because of the strong influence from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Munich, where many Greek artists trained. The Munich school painted the same sort of scenes in the same sort of style as Western European academic painters in several countries, and did not generally attempt to incorporate Byzantine stylistic elements into their work.
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.
