Hotel/porn is my favourite got amy allen and girl in NY from red prop, suzy creamcheese and cat crozny from CP back in april / may time, put off madagasca and hotel porn til august ( stil waiting) and picachu from blkmrkt in august. Picked up red chopper from the bay along the way. CP hoped to have them out this week ( when I spoke to them last week). |

Very nice list, I am appreciating Ian Francis more and more Cheers man, chuffed with some, less impressed with others, but the guy will be one to keep watching, older simple and strong work, newer striking and thought provoking stuff, growing with each release, definite progression from the collectors work to the new blkmrkt stuff, and something there for most. Also work still available thats not too pricey ( see westleys link), everyone should have at least one Francis, as its not going to change the world, but always something new to see in his work. |

Spoke to CP this morning, and funnily enough they hope to have them out this week..... ahem...... Cant see why a run of 250 would put folk off, all signed and well packed and really nice prints. |

ian francis prints on sale at www.collectorsprints, by Matt-lock on Nov 7, 2007 18:03:25 GMT 1, I think one of the reasons is people see all the attention that the blk mrkt prints get so those are more sought after in general. Then take into account the edition size, not as good of quality, and the fact they're still $600. I think people would rather save a little more and find some of the blk mrkt prints available. Having said that I would still love to get a couple of these 250 editions.

Why are they not as good quality Matt? its been rattled arround the last couple of days but no-one has quantified this statment? has anyone else got prints from all 3 places, sat down with them and actually pointed out what makes the RP and CP ones inferior?

ian francis prints on sale at www.collectorsprints, by Filipino Box Spring Hog on Nov 7, 2007 18:14:58 GMT 1, I've got prints from all three places - the collectors prints are not as nice - the ink is lesser quality (not as deep colors), the paper is lesser quality - not nearly as nice as the blk/mrkt or rp prints.

Personally, no I have not seen all the prints next to each other but based off what others have said I have come to the conclusion that the 250 editions are not quite the quality the blk mrkt editions are. I have talked to dupree74 on numerous occasions about them and seen others comments. I am by no means saying the 250 edition are bad...just stating that the blk mrkt prints are slighty better quality from what I hear.

ian francis prints on sale at www.collectorsprints, by buster on Nov 7, 2007 18:31:01 GMT 1, I've got prints from all three places - the collectors prints are not as nice - the ink is lesser quality (not as deep colors), the paper is lesser quality - not nearly as nice as the blk/mrkt or rp prints.
The colour range used with the newer prints is definately more vivid and deaper than the older lighter prints that he did, but that is more down to the print subject than the process. IMO. Thanks for looking though as you are the first to quantify the difference between the different editions, cheers +1

I don't have a problem with any of them either They are all lovely. As far as the color goes you very well may have a valid point...."more down to print subject than process".... having never seen an Ian Francis painting in the flesh,  I'm not qualified to determine how well any of the prints from any of the printing houses accurately reflect the quality of the original.

You'll love the madagascar mate, it's got more detail that's not immediately obvious in the online jpg.
Agree with some of the comments here, the CP versions though a bigger release are still good value, come with a nice mount too which saves another few quid plus you get a raft of certificates
