The latter is a limited edition of 180 images comprising a clamshell box and a set of 34 leaves including 32 facsimile reproductions of the photographer’s work printed using a combination of litho and screen. This gave a high-value, fine-art feel that rubbed off on the judges: “Unquestionably the clear winner in this category, the quality of each sample supplied shone though.” The images were printed litho in four colours with an overall gloss coating. The majority of the photographic leaves also have a super matt special colour border, each colour being a unique ink mix and almost left the judges speechless, but not quite: “simply stunning.”
