First coined in 1991 by plastic artist Jack Duganne, the word "Giclee" refers to the process of creating fine art prints from digital sources.The name giclee (derived from the French "to spray or squirt") refers to the inkjet printer's capability to spray more than 4 million microscopic droplets of ink per second onto canvas or paper acid free. Nowadays, contemporary museums and galleries such as The MOMA NY, Guggenheim Bilbao, Modern Art Museum of San Francisco, Reina Sofía Museum, ecc expose and sell this pieces as any other, stating that the Digital Art Era has come to stay and are as valuable as analogue aquafortes or photographs. 

Pigment based archival inks are employed, rather than dyes on giclee prints so they  have much better archival properties than lithographies or silkscreen printing. With a typical light fastness rating of 100-200 years, although it's worth not exposing them to the sunlight directly to increase the color fidelity time. In addition, the finish is both smudge-proof and waterproof, and can be varnished with UV protective substances that can imitate brushwork or palette-knife produced textures, thus giving it the feel of a plastic painting. UV protective varnishes can also increase durability and make colours seem richer.
