Lumen print photography uses the sun or a similar light source (a UV lamp is what I use when the sun is hiding 😊) to create prints of the subject on fiber-based photographic papers. The print is then processed to make the image permanent by immersion in a photographic fixer.
I recommend displaying out of direct sunlight and framing in a UV-protective frame to prevent fading.
As part of the lumen printing process, each print is fully submerged in liquid to fix the artwork and make it permanent. Because of this, the paper may not be completely flat. As is the case with all original handmade artworks, subtle variations and minor imperfections may be present.
