It's also bottom weighted because Nico apparently did little hand-drawn totems underneath the image on the white for the variant.

IMO it's the best film print this year. I'm just a cheap bastard and there's not cheap way of framing it

Why don't you want to cut it if it's just white border?

Floating this print is the way to go with some under mats.

Doesn't matter under a frame.

It was discussed. A vote was cast and most preferred to keep the natural border with a deckled edge as those who didn't like it could always have it trimmed. While I haven't seen it in person, all of the pictures I have seen don't look bad at all.
Oof. Was having the image centered in the middle of the paper an option that was voted as well? Not sure if you've seen this pic.. 301816318084

Trust me, I have seen plenty of pics of the finished product. Personally I have zero issues with it. Plenty of ways to display it or trim it down.

tranito · Wed Dec 09, 2015 1:11 pm

Pics are pics. Whatever. And the dimensions of the border all around are..??

Kramerica · Wed Dec 09, 2015 1:12 pm

Guess you will just have to buy one and find out.

tranito · Wed Dec 09, 2015 1:16 pm

Tell me something I can't learn buying one then.. Did you really vote for that border to be kept that way, or are you just ''cool with it'' now that you have to ''live with it''. Seems like a touchy subject that was brought up this morning!

I think you care more about it than anyone else here. I wanted the paper to be kept as is. I prefer a border present to show the depth of the intaglio printing and to preserve the texture of the edge. The options were to trim or not to trim and my desire was to keep it like it was. If I, or anyone else is unhappy with the way it looks upon receipt, it can always be trimmed down or the border matted to the desire of the owner. It kept the most options available to all the owners. There was no drama associated with it as far as I know.

I do find it interesting to hear about the commission process and the decisions that were made. Do I care about this print in particular? Not really. Do I care about it more than someone who was involved in the commission and who wished his border did not end up looking like that? Of course not. Still it's interesting. Curious of the % that wanted it ''trimmed'' vs. ''left as is''. I'm a bit surprised ''as is'' won to be honest.
