Figures float weightlessly out of dreamlike backgrounds in the works of Marta Gottfried. From Mexico City, she was raised in an artistic household where visits by icons such as Frida Kahlo were common. Strongly influenced by Impressionism, Gottfried began selling her paintings as early as high school. She particularly enjoys painting surreal landscapes, animals and dancers imbued in soft, soulful tones. Well versed in numerous mediums, Gottfried says, “I paint because it hurts not to. Pain is in the word painting.”
This giclée print delivers a vivid image with maximum color accuracy and exceptional resolution. The standard for museums and galleries around the world, giclée (French for “to spray”) is a printing process where millions of ink droplets are sprayed onto the paper’s surface. With the great degree of detail and smooth transitions of color gradients, giclée prints appear much more realistic than other reproduction prints. The high-quality paper (235 gsm) is acid free with a smooth surface.
