Caring for Your Precious Fine Art Prints

Caring for Your Precious Fine Art Prints

Thank you for choosing to bring a piece of Finnish nature and mythology into your home. Each Fine Art print is crafted with care, using museum-quality materials to ensure lasting beauty and connection. With a few simple steps, you can help preserve your artwork for generations.

Handling Your Print

To keep your print in pristine condition, always handle it with clean, dry hands — cotton gloves are ideal if available. Touch only the edges, as even the finest papers are sensitive to fingerprints, marks, and scratches, especially in darker areas. Every print includes a generous 10 cm white border to make handling easier and to elevate the presentation.

Optimal Display Conditions

For the longest life and best appearance:

  • Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause fading over time.
  • Display your print in a room with stable temperature and humidity; avoid areas like bathrooms or kitchens.
  • For added protection, consider framing with UV-protective glass or acrylic. While my prints are shipped without glass for safety and aesthetics, your local framer can easily add this feature.

Cleaning Recommendations

Dust frames gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For the print surface itself, use a soft duster — never water or cleaning solutions. If your print needs deeper cleaning or you notice stubborn marks, consult a professional conservator to avoid accidental damage.

Storage Tips

If you need to store your print:

  • Use acid-free, archival-quality sleeves or folders.
  • Store flat in a cool, dry place, and avoid stacking to prevent creasing or scratching.
  • For larger works, a portfolio case offers additional protection.

By following these care guidelines, your Fine Art print will continue to share the tranquil spirit of Finnish landscapes and myths for many years to come. Each piece is created with intention and respect for both art and nature.

If you have any questions about caring for your artwork — or simply want to chat about art and nature — I’m always happy to help.
