Louis John Rhead was an English-born American artist, illustrator, author and angler. Rhead became a prominent poster artist and was heavily influenced by the work of Swiff artist Eugene Grasset. His poster art appeared in many magazines. When his popularity of poster art declined, Rhead turned his skills to book illustration.
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.
