Three of the Best Smooth Fine Art Papers

Our collection of fine art papers offers three popular choices: Hahnemühle Photo Rag, Moab Entrada Rag, and Sunset Cotton Etching. While visually similar, these papers possess distinct characteristics. Hahnemühle Photo Rag, our flagship paper, is versatile, ideal for black and white or color prints with impressive depth. Moab Entrada Rag provides superb ink handling and replaces Epson Ultrasmooth Fine Art Paper. Sunset Cotton Etching offers a low-level textured surface, reminiscent of traditional printmaking. Each paper meets high standards and serves different artistic preferences, making it essential to try them all to find the perfect fit for your projects.

How to Choose a Paper Type

An artist asked, “What kind of paper should I choose? I am just getting into printing and don’t know what type of paper to select. Can you help me?” Of all the questions we get, I have to put this at the top. As a giclee printing company, FinerWorks has carefully researched what people like and what people expect in a paper. As you can imagine, this has resulted in us offering quite the array of fine art papers, all designed to provide exceptional image quality for both the artist having reproductions made and for photographers requiring something special for their client or next competition.
