A Mother’s Touch, by Maggie Lemak, captures the mystery and otherworldly nature of the mother/child relationship. The absence of faces indicates that the subjects could be anyone, but also give an ethereal, vanishing quality. Rather than solid and present, the work feels ephemeral, as if the mother’s touch is something once had, now yearned for.
Our Hahnemühle Pearl Giclée paper has a smooth orange peel texture and resin coating which creates a fibrous feel and satin-like finish. With a bright neutral white base, it creates natural black and white images and offers vibrant color reproduction. Combined, this great mixture of qualities give the print the feel of an oil painting.
Prints are shipped flat in a protective parchment sleeve in between two sheets of stiff cardboard to keep prints flat in transit. If the artwork is damaged in any way during shipping, please contact us right away with photographs documenting any such damages. We will seek to address the damage to customer satisfaction on a case by case basis.
