There are so many ways that art has been appreciated over the centuries. Paintings, photographs, sculptures and so on. Back then, reproduction of these pieces were very tasking and more often than not, just not possible. Now we have the benefit of being able to digitally capture and create art pieces. Printing them become a matter of quality since many methods of printing are offered.

Good quality prints are not particularly hard to find if they were meant to be small scale ones. But for large pieces, getting somethings that can match the digital format may be a bit tricky. Acrylic photo prints are especially good at showing high definition images and are perfect for those that plan to print their high definition photographs.

Each method has their own corresponding benefits and perks. When it comes to price if canvas was compared to acrylic, canvas would be more widely used because it is cheaper. While it has the price advantage it can only produce two thirds of the color gamut that acrylic does. But whether to get one or the other largely depends on the style the artist is going for.

Knowing which one to choose it vital because the way the photograph is presented can do so much to the way it is seen. The process that makes up for acrylic prints involves the image being printed on a photo paper and being pressed between two sheets of acrylic. The back panel can either be white, black or transparent depending on what would be fit for the image.

Artist who prefer a sharper image, especially when it comes to high def photographs should largely consider the more high tech option. A piece printed in this method gives off a more of a modern vibe that makes it perfect for a more contemporary and current settings. This claim does not discredit the advantages of canvas printing since that in itself has its own style.

Because this method produces top quality with the best available resolution, it is often used for office and corporate settings. It gives the impression of sharpness. These can be mounted using either a frame or aluminum support. Thankfully, the aluminum perfectly blends with the image and does not visually disrupt it.

The best benefit with acrylic, visually speaking, is how it can emphasize black better. The dots per inch that it covers is more than that of canvas making its gamut higher by one third. This is how this type of print is able to show more colors resulting to a more vibrant picture.

The downside is how this is the more expensive among all the available option. The price that you pay is well compensated for since these prints are also very durable. The coating makes the product waterproof and UV protected. Canvases are not by default with varnish and UV protection but a lacquer or substance can be added to achieve this, post print.

Cleaning the print is also considerably easier. The material or substance used can compare with what you can use with glass and other same textured surfaces. You are guaranteed that the photo surface is waterproof, so even if you decide to just use water as the cleaning agent, it would not affect the image quality.
