For us, Lockdown has meant an end to viewings at our gallery. 100% of our sales are now online, so it’s vital that the original prints we are selling, mainly from the 1960s and 1970s by well known artists such as Henry Moore, David Hockney, Keith Haring, and Edinburgh’s very own Eduardo Paolozzi, are represented truthfully on ModernPrints.co.uk: what our customers receive in the post should be exactly what they have viewed online. That’s why our new partnership with Copystand.co.uk, another business based at Summerhall, is so important. Their custom camera setup painstakingly colour-matches artwork photography to the real thing, ensuring that there are no nasty surprises when our customers first see their purchases in person.

Copystand has perfected the art of taking photographs of artworks from oil paintings to prints to tapestry. Now, also offering a free collection and return service in the Edinburgh area, so that artists and publishers do not have to go out unnecessarily and Copystand is as coronavirus-proof as possible. Many artists have been busy over the lockdown period and their only outlet is online galleries so having quality photographs is more crucial than ever.

The art world has been pretty slow to join the e-commerce revolution but online art retailers are now disrupting the traditional auction house and gallery model. ModernPrints.co.uk intends to keep increasing our online sales by offering a virtual gallery experience – high quality images, transparent pricing and clear information. The benefits are obvious: browse at your leisure (even in your pyjamas…) and have your own ‘private viewing’ at home, any time you want.
