ABOUT THE IMAGE

Meet the Humboldt penguin, a charming little bird with a big personality! Named after the chilly Humboldt Current they call home, these penguins are known for their distinctive black bands and a curious nature.

In the wild, they can be found along the shores of Peru and Chile and their sharp claws help them climb over the rocky coastlines. Around 2ft tall, they are expert swimmers, zipping through the water at speeds up to and 500m deep when searching for food. 

During the hottest months of the year, temperatures in the Humboldt penguin's home can reach triple digits so the patches of bare, pink skin around its eyes and at the base of its bill help it expel body heat.

Did you know they mate for life? In local folklore, they're symbols of love and loyalty. 

This print is perfect for bringing a touch of the wild into your space! 

Humboldt Penguin Portrait Foam Backed Prints.

Enjoy a premium photographic print with three paper options, each designed to suit different lighting conditions and artistic preferences:

  • Lustre Photographic - A semi-matt finish with a subtle, speckled sheen that reduces glare, making it perfect for well-lit spaces or rooms with direct sunlight.
  • Gloss Photographic - A bold, high-gloss finish that enhances depth and contrast, ideal for striking imagery that stands out.
  • Fine Art Matt – A luxurious 308gsm Hahnemühle paper with a smooth, ultra-matte surface and rich colour depth, offering a refined, three-dimensional look.

Each print is mounted onto black, 3mm Foamex - an ultra-durable, moisture-resistant PVC substrate that remains lightweight yet rigid. Perfect for displaying on an easel or mounting with the included Velcro strips, without the need for framing.

Supplied without a border unless otherwise specified.

Optional lamination is available in satin or gloss to match your selected paper, providing extra protection against moisture and handling. However, lamination is not recommended for Fine Art Matt paper, as it will obscure its authentic texture.

Care Instructions

Handle with Clean, Dry Hands - Oils and dirt from your fingers can damage the surface. 
Avoid Direct Sunlight - Even with high-quality archival paper, prolonged UV exposure can cause fading over time.
Avoid areas with high humidity, such as bathrooms or kitchens, to prevent warping or discolouration. 
Glossy prints are more prone to fingerprints and scratches, so avoid unnecessary contact.

Cleaning:

Lustre: Dust Gently with a Soft Cloth - A clean, dry microfibre cloth can remove dust without scratching the surface. 
Gloss: Use an Anti-Static Brush for Dusting - Gloss prints attract more dust, so a soft brush helps maintain a clean surface. If smudges appear, use a slightly damp microfibre cloth and blot (don't rub!) to avoid scratching. 
Hahnemühle Photo Rag: Avoid wiping or using moisture. Gently remove dust with an air blower or a soft, dry brush to preserve the delicate texture.
