Historical Pix is a small American company based in central CT specializing in black and white (mostly) interior artwork for homes and businesses. The artwork expresses nostalgic ideas by transporting us back to places we forgot and introducing us to people who looked at life a little differently.
With 25 years experience in artwork preparation and an aim to produce high quality artwork, Historical Pix focuses on longevity, durability, and style by using acid-free quality papers from Hahnemuhle and Canon. Prints are made in-house using top-of-the-line Canon Pro-2000 and Epson Surecolor printers with 11 Ultrachrome archival inks.
All photos and prints are unprocessed public domain photos without known copyright restrictions. We work with professional, industry-grade equipment and imaging software. Each photo is evaluated carefully. We remove dust and scratches, optimize exposure, luminance, clarity, contrast, fix tears, remove stains, and more, while retaining and enhancing the original details. This can take an hours per photo.
