He believed that 'the plant must be valued as a totally artistic and architectural structure.' Original Medium: Gelatin Silver Print.

The file is then printed with a high-resolution photo generation printer on a fine art paper. Most artists and working photographers today use the giclee process to produce reproductions of their original artwork and photographs. As with any original art or fine art reproduction, it is recommended that prints are framed and displayed under glass to prevent color fade or shift over the years.
