Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley, presented in the Arcturus Decorative Classics hardcover edition with silver foil embossing and beautifully stenciled page edges.

What has always fascinated me about Frankenstein is how quickly the story changes when we stop looking at the creature and begin looking at his creator. Mary Shelley gives us far more than a frightening tale. She asks what we owe to the things we bring into the world.

I selected this larger decorative edition for its striking silver detailing, patterned endpapers, and beautifully finished page edges. It's a book that deserves to be displayed as well as read.

FAQs

WHAT IS A GICLEÉ PRINT?

Giclee printing is currently the highest quality standard for printing single or limited edition prints. The term "giclee"(pronounced "ZHEE-CLAY")is a French word meaning "to spray." Giclee prints are created by spraying millions of droplets of ink onto archival fine-art substrates. The word "giclee," as a fine-art term, has come to be associated with prints using fade-resistant archival pigmented inks printed on archival substrates by professional inkjet printers. Giclee prints represent the highest evolution in printmaking technology. The giclee printing process provides better color accuracy and richer depth of color than other means of art reproduction possible.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT ABOUT THE PRINT QUALITY?

A great gicleé print begins with a great image. We proudly use a privately owned giclee printing company founded in 2003 that services the fine art and photography markets. They have gained international recognition with featured articles about their services in Digital Ouput Magazine, Digital Photo Pro Magazine and on the Oprah show. Osio-Brown Editions is one of the original giclee printing studios in the Chicago area and is a preeminent force in the fine art giclee printing industry. Their client list extends throughout the United States, Central & South America and Europe.

WHAT ABOUT FRAMING?

The prints are standard sizes allowing them to be framed easily with stock size frames found in most stores. Custom framing is always a beautiful option but not necessary.
