This 44" x 50' roll of Canson Infinity Baryta Photographique II paper has an extremely smooth surface with a matte finish which, due to the lack of grain interference, accentuates the detail in the printed image. The matte surface also has no light reflection from any viewing angle, ideal for photographers or artists that wish to display their final work.

Although Baryta Photographique II Matte is classed as a digital darkroom photo paper, it should be printed using matte black ink as opposed to photo black ink. With an extremely high D-Max, or black density, equivalent to that of a digital fine art matte paper, the paper offers exceptional contrast and depth, as well as colors with vibrancy and intensity.

The paper has the same true barium sulfate layer (baryta) as Baryta Photographique II and benefits from the improved handling of the paper introduced in the second generation of this digital darkroom paper. Baryta Photographique II Matte is made on a traditional photographic alpha-cellulose base, which adds to the authentic feel of a darkroom paper.

The Canson Infinity Baryta Photographique II Matte offers photographers and printmakers a unique aesthetic and feel.
