Examining a 30 x 40-inch black and white print on Hahnemühle Fine Art Baryta paper

I recently had the opportunity to print this photograph for a client at 30 x 40 inches on Hahnemühle Fine Art Baryta paper. I recently switched to this stock for all of my fine art prints, and I love it.

I thought I’d share a few images and a short video of the surface and print quality. This content is not sponsored by Hahnemühle or anyone else, however if you use the links to buy paper, I may earn a small commission.

This paper is the Hahnemühle Fine Art Baryta glossy 325 gsm. There are several other varieties of Hahnemühle Baryta paper. You can see many of them listed on Amazon here.

Here are links to the exact paper I use in a few sizes:

Hahnemuhle Fine Art Baryta 325 ( 8.5 x 11-inches, 25 sheets)
Ultra Smooth High Gloss, Bright White Inkjet Paper, 325gsm

Hahnemuhle Fine Art Baryta 325 ( 13 x 19-inches, 25 sheets)
Ultra Smooth High Gloss, Bright White Inkjet Paper, 325gsm

This paper is not cheap as you’ll see if you follow the Amazon links above, but in my opinion, Hahnemühle offers the best paper made for fine art prints. I used their uncoated photo rag mat for years, and only recently converted to the fine art baryta.
