Compare Hahnemühle Photo Rag Papers

Hahnemühle Photo Rag® papers are among the most widely used fine art inkjet papers in professional photography and giclée printing. While all papers in the Photo Rag family share a 100% cotton base and archival quality, each variant offers subtle differences in surface finish, tone and visual impact. Choosing the right paper depends on the style of image and the desired presentation.

Photo Rag® 308gsm

The classic Photo Rag paper features a smooth matte surface and natural white base. It is one of the most popular papers used for fine art photography, giclée printing and exhibition work. The surface produces excellent detail reproduction with soft tonal transitions, making it particularly well suited to black and white photography, portraiture and artwork reproduction.

Photo Rag® Bright White 310gsm

Photo Rag Bright White offers a slightly brighter base tone than the standard Photo Rag. This produces increased contrast and more vibrant colours, making it a strong choice for contemporary photography, digital artwork and high-impact colour prints where maximum brightness and clarity are desired.

Photo Rag® Satin 310

Photo Rag Satin combines the archival cotton base of traditional Photo Rag with a refined satin surface. The subtle sheen enhances black density, contrast and colour depth while maintaining the tactile feel of a fine art paper. This makes it ideal for professional photography, portrait work and exhibition prints where a slightly richer photographic finish is preferred.

Photo Rag® Pearl 320

Photo Rag Pearl features a smooth pearl surface with a gentle lustre that enhances colour brilliance and image depth. The surface produces strong blacks and vibrant colours while retaining the premium feel of a cotton-based fine art paper. It is particularly well suited to professional photography, portraiture, fashion and high-end exhibition prints.

Photo Rag® Metallic

Photo Rag Metallic features a unique metallic coating that adds a subtle shimmer to printed images. This surface is often chosen for striking photographic work, commercial display graphics and contemporary artwork where enhanced visual impact is required.

All Photo Rag papers are acid-free, lignin-free and designed for long-term archival printing, making them suitable for limited edition artwork, gallery exhibitions and professional photography.
