UK shipping only

The Papestry Complex is a playful reimagining of Lincoln’s Bailgate and Steep Hill. Buildings from the original drawing have been digitally cut apart and carefully rearranged by aesthetic rather than geography, creating a fresh new vision of Lincoln. While retaining the spirit and scale of the original Papestry, this edition offers a more space-friendly composition.

Giclée printed on museum-quality, textured Hahnemühle etching paper using archival inks. Every limited edition print is hand signed and numbered, and includes an information booklet and certificate of authenticity.

Prints are sold unframed and shipped tracked in sturdy protective tubes. Shipping cost included.

Created over the course of a year, The Papestry celebrates the architecture, history, and character of Lincoln through highly detailed fineliner illustration.

FAQ - PLEASE READ BEFORE ORDERING

Why the longer lead time on shipping?

I now release my prints in batches. Once the pre-order window closes, all orders are sent to print, which usually takes around a week depending on the volume.

Once they’re ready, I head to the specialist printers in Leeds to personally check every print before signing and numbering them. The distribution team then carefully packs and ships them directly to you.

Can you frame it for me?

I don’t currently offer a framing service. If you’re considering one of the larger prints, I’d recommend checking with your local framer beforehand to make sure they can accommodate the size and to get an idea of cost.
If you’re local to Lincoln, I highly recommend Speed Frame.

Can I see them in person before buying

Framed prints will be available to view and purchase from Sppedframe, Lincoln from late August. You’ll be able to see the prints up close, including framed examples, and purchase on the day subject to remaining stock.

Hahnemühle What?

Hahnemühle Etching paper is a premium, mould-made art paper renowned among traditional printmakers and artists. Crafted by the historic German paper mill Hahnemühle, it is highly valued for its velvety texture, excellent ability to pick up fine details, and archival museum quality.

Giclée What?

Giclée printing is a high-quality digital printing process used to create museum-grade, archival reproductions of fine art and photography. Pronounced "zhee-clay", the term comes from the French word gicler, which means "to spray" or "to squirt." This refers to how a specialized, large-format inkjet printer applies millions of microscopic droplets of ink to a surface to achieve ultra-fine detail and flawless colour transitions.
