David Robert Jones, known as David Bowie, is a British musician, singer, songwriter and actor who was born on 8 January 1947 in London and died on 10 January 2016 in New York.

There is an interesting anecdote about David Bowie that is often told in fan and musician circles. In the early 1970s, Bowie was touring the United States and had the opportunity to meet one of his idols, Elvis Presley, who was preparing his own tour. Bowie later recounted in an interview that he was invited to meet Presley in his hotel suite, but was so nervous that he could not find the words to speak to his hero. At one point, Presley asked Bowie if he would sing something for him, and Bowie began to sing “Love Me Tender” in a shaky voice.After singing a few lines, Presley got up from his chair, put his hand on Bowie’s shoulder and said, “Thanks, man, that’s really great. You’re an incredible talent.” Bowie said it was one of the most memorable moments of his career and that he was honoured to receive praise from his hero.

Longevity of carbon pigment inks
Tests carried out in the USA, in the Wilhem research center, guarantee a longevity of 150 years if these inks are associated with acid-free papers, with the Hahnemühle or Canson paper ranges we work with.
On a more technical aspect, the carbon inks are encapsulated: it is coal dust mixed with a binder which allows to deposit it on the paper. No difference in density between the printer output and after drying. There is a slight evaporation of the binder which stabilizes the pigment on the coating. It remains then the coal dust, which will give the density and nuance of the black and white impression.
The inks are made from pure monochromatic pigments chosen for their resistance to light, available in seven progressive shades, from light gray to black. They are specially designed to reflect light back to the viewer’s eye and completely eliminate color anomalies such as metamerism (which changes color depending on the light source). The Piezography System, monochrome inks, provides a unique photographic look that includes depth and brilliance throughout the image surface.
The formula allows for a longevity that reaches record levels when printing on archival and fine art papers. The print quality is at least equal to the best silver baryta print, if not better.
