Frans Lanting Photography

We are pleased to introduce a new collection of Frans Lanting’s images as giclée prints. The images are from a new body of work on orchids. For this project Frans set up improvised studios at orchid shows where award-winning specimens of rare orchids are brought together and judged. Other images in this series were made at anorchid nursery in the Monterey Bay area. His goal was to find superlative specimens and portray them as works of art. Photographing these extraordinary flowers required a delicate balance of lighting and shading on the subject. The images were recorded on film and then digitized to be printed using a giclée process that can be combined with a great variety of papers. After experimenting with different papers, we settled on a giclée watercolor paper with a smooth surface. The soft textured surface of the paper is a wonderful match for similar textures on the flowers themselves.

Each Print includes the signature of Frans Lanting stamped on the mat or print. Click on the thumbnails below for purchasing information.
