About This Paper

Overview

Hahnemühle Photo Rag 188gsm carries the same soft, natural-white cotton character that made the original Photo Rag a world-renowned standard, just in a lighter, more flexible weight. Its finely defined felt texture still lends prints a subtle three-dimensional depth, while the smooth matte coating supports rich colour and strong detail.

This makes it a versatile option for photographers and artists who want dependable Photo Rag quality for proofing, portfolios, or everyday fine art printing. Acid- and lignin-free, it meets the same rigorous archival standards as the rest of the Photo Rag family.
