Why choose Hahnemuhle Bamboo?
Bamboo is the outlier in the range — 90% bamboo fibre, 10% cotton — and the surface shows it in the best way. The texture is its own thing: slightly more irregular than cotton papers, with a natural warmth that suits certain images more than a neutral white base would.
OBA-free, matte, 290g. An honest choice for work where sustainability is part of the brief, and a genuinely good surface for photography and art projects that benefit from a warmer, more organic feel. Not a compromise option — it performs well on its own terms.
Choosing the Right Paper
Names like “Photographique” or “Aquarelle” may suggest specific uses, but they rarely tell the full story. Paper choice should depend on your taste, intent, and the nature of the image — not on fixed rules. If you’re unsure, we’re here to help.
Don't get caught up in the name
An example is Rag Photographique: despite the name, it’s a matte paper, 100% cotton, versatile and suitable for many types of images. What matters is not the label, but the results you want to achieve and the purpose of your work.
Image influences, but does not limit
Photographic fine art papers tend to offer higher definition and DMax — ideal for images with strong contrast, such as architectural photography. Even so, those same images can work beautifully on a softer matte or textured paper, depending on what you want to highlight.
The choice is yours
We generally recommend matte fine art papers for illustrations, artistic reproductions, and digital art. Still, the choice should reflect your taste, intent, and the nature of the image — some images may benefit more from certain papers than others. Often, there’s more than one right answer.
Choose with intention. Print with purpose.
Every work is going somewhere. The question is how. Paper, frame, finish — it all speaks. We help make sure it says what you mean.
