BACKSTORY
History Laid In The Shade
I’ve been in love with Greece since my first visit as a child in 1972. Being only 5 I don’t remember much except what my parent reminded me of.
This first visit did however start my passion for the country its people and most of all its incredible history & mythology.
Since then I travelled to many of the well-known archaeological sites on the mainland and a few on the islands camera in hand.
I love nothing better than to rise before dawn to discover a slice of history bathed in beautiful light.

PRODUCT DETAILS
What you are hanging on your wall
Printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308gsm, a heavy cotton paper made to archival standards. Not standard photo paper. A soft-textured, cotton-based surface that absorbs pigment ink at a depth that makes colours appear from within the print rather than sitting on top of it.
Each print is numbered as part of a strictly limited edition, signed, and includes a Certificate of Authenticity. When the edition sells out, it is closed for good — no further limited edition prints of this image will be made.

What’s The Difference Between A Canvas And A Limited Edition Print?
- The canvas prints are open edition — there is no limit on how many can be made.
- The limited edition prints are on Hahnemühle Photo Rag paper — a heavy cotton paper made to archival standards — with a strict edition cap (5, 10 or 15 depending on size).
- When an edition sells out, it is closed for good. Some photographs are offered in both formats and some in one only. The difference is the material, the edition limit, and what that means for long-term ownership.
