The paper you choose shapes more than the look of a print — it influences the depth, texture, and overall experience of the final piece. That's why we're excited to introduce two new additions to our Fine Art Paper lineup from Hahnemühle: Photo Rag Matte and Photo Rag Matte Baryta. Both papers are crafted from 100% cotton and designed to deliver museum-quality results, but each brings its own distinctive character to the images you create.
Photo Rag Matte
Photo Rag Matte is a smooth, 100% cotton paper that balances authentic fine art character with exceptional print performance. With its substantial 308 gsm weight and refined matte surface, it creates a premium presentation while allowing the image itself to remain the focus.
This paper delivers:
- Rich, natural color reproduction
- Precise detail and image sharpness
- A smooth surface with the authentic feel of fine art paper
- Archival-quality presentation designed for lasting prints
Its versatility makes it a strong choice across a wide range of work, from portraits and weddings to landscapes, senior photography, and fine art imagery.
Photo Rag Matte Baryta
For photographers looking for something a little different, Photo Rag Matte Baryta offers a distinctive surface designed to bring added dimension to the final print. It is especially well suited for gallery prints, black-and-white imagery, fine art photography, dramatic landscapes, and images with deep shadow detail. The result feels elevated and refined without introducing a traditional glossy finish.
Photo Rag Matte Baryta features:
- Printed areas reveal a subtle sheen while unprinted areas remain matte
- Deep blacks with an expanded tonal range
- Enhanced sharpness and clarity for fine detail
- Museum-quality archival permanence
- A non-glossy alternative to traditional baryta papers
