Cannot agree with any of that. Gicle'e prints are reproductions of
paintings.

> Definition of Gicle'e Print from http://photography.about.com/library/

> "Giclée print is the 'gallery term' for inkjet prints, used to try and
> make them seem more valuable than prints you can make from your own
> computer. Inkjet printing covers a very wide range of printer types, ink
> compositions and papers, from cheap throwaway prints to works of art on
> fine paper printed on high quality printers.
>
> The first high quality inkjet prints avaialable were from expensive 'Iris'
> printers, and high quality prints are normally made on 100% cotton hand
> made or mould-made watercolor papers. Prints made on these printers are
> sometimes designated 'Iris Giclée'. Unfortunately, giclée, a French word
> meaning 'spurt', is most commonly used to describe the male sexual climax.
>
> With high quality ink jet prints now available from other systems,
> including Epson's pigment and other archival inks as well as the unique
> carbon inks used in Cone Editions 'PiezographyBW' system, there is much
> interest in new terms to use to describe high quality ink jet prints."
