About Rome Black & White

Rome Black & White exists because I love to photograph and happen to live near Rome, the Eternal City, where a surprise awaits around every street corner. I have been observing Rome and its visitors and inhabitants for almost ten years and am delighted to make these photographs available for sale! I guarantee you too will be delighted when you purchase a print! — Simon Griffee

Sizes, Markings, Prices

The exact size of the printed image varies and the print sizes below refers to the approximate paper size. Each unique print has the title, date, my signature, and if part of a limited edition, the edition number written in pencil on the back (or front margin, if requested). Prints are not framed or matted. I recommend you choose the mat and frame in person at a local frame shop in order to best fit the location you plan to display the print and your own individual preference. Copyright marks are not present on prints.

Print Qualities

Rome Black & White prints have a great range of tonalities from deep black to bright white with distinct greys in between. Cotton fiber-based matte papers of museum archival quality are always used. The prints use pure carbon black pigment ink only. The combination of carbon pigment ink and acid-free 100% cotton paper gives the prints a very long life without fading, close to or surpassing silver prints (100–200 years). Prints are not framed or matted and there is generous white space around each print.

Licensing

Most images here at Rome Black & White are available for limited licensing for use in a variety of media. If you are interested in licensing a photograph, please contact me.

All the photographs here at RomeBW.com are copyright by myself, Simon Griffee, and may not be reproduced without my written permission.

A very special thanks to you, dear visitor, for purchasing my prints. I couldn’t do this without you!
