"Hemp" paper spans the arc between the origins of papermaking and the advanced production process of the Hahnemühle paper mill. Sixty percent of the medium is based on hemp fibers, that robust plant fiber that was incorporated into the documents of the American Declaration of Independence and has endured to this day. Hemp not only gives the paper impressive longevity but also a fine structure and radiant white. Combined with cotton fibers, the hemp paper achieves a weight of 290 g/m², making it a premium quality product. The natural fibers give the paper a uniform, felt-like texture. For printing artworks, it is prepared with a matte coating, ensuring brilliant color reproductions and deep blacks. This environmentally friendly paper is an excellent medium for painting reproductions.
Hemp paper is captivating with its soft tactility and pleasant surface. These properties predestine it for display in any interior space. Its high durability and matte surface make 'Hemp' a versatile image carrier, brilliantly representing even the most intense color applications. Whether displayed freely on the wall, framed without glass, or in a museum-style hang with a passe-partout and non-reflective glass – the paper impresses. In the dynamic family everyday life or in a business context, framing provides additional protection against dust, light, and heating air, thereby easing the care of the artwork.
Within Hahnemühle's 'Natural Line' product line, papers made from natural raw materials are in focus. This authenticity is reflected in the paper's radiance and harmonizes perfectly with natural motifs. The sensitive work of the goldfinch by Carel Fabritius is a predestined motif for hemp paper. The vibrant bird world of John James Audubon demands an accurate and true-to-color representation, which this fine art paper can masterfully achieve. These are just two examples of the plethora of atmospheric landscapes and portrayals whose evocative effect is impressively highlighted on a matte surface. Works that come as close to the original in their detail accuracy and contour sharpness as possible.
