I just ordered this paper and it showed up today. I wanted to just put in a note that this package contains 20 pages. I could not find that information anywhere!

As I just ordered this and have only printed two pictures so far, for lack of a more intelligent review, I can say, it's COOL! Very impressive picture quality for the two 'artistic' shots I printed. I love the soft, matte quality and the sturdy thickness. I have an Epson 2200.
best inkjet paper, by far!

I use this paper whenever I print almost all of my artwork. The images come out looking incredible -- when I print an image that was originally on watercolor paper, it is almost impossible to tell the difference -- it has that nice watercolor paper look and feel. Also, there are lots of warnings in the packaging about handling and printing on this paper -- but I have had no problems with scratching images transported just sitting in a folder in my car -- and I've also loved the quality of printing on both sides -- one has a little less texture than the other, is all. (I'm using an Epson Stylus Photo RX620, btw.)
LOVE it!

I opened an art gallery this summer and wanted to produce my own prints on an Epson Stylus R1800. My goodness! I was amazed at the results! Truly, I would have never guessed the difference could be so great. I thought my work was printing nicely before, but I've read a lot of folks just raving about this Fine Art paper and wanted to try it. It is pricey, but well worth every penny. The reds in my pomegranate paintings have never been so brilliant. I enthusiastically endorse this product! Well done, Epson!
Nice Look, Softer Finish

This paper produces prints that are not quite as sharp as you would get with premium glossy paper, or even matte photo paper, but it's a very nice look. I'm an artist who works a lot with charcoal and colored chalk pencils, so for me, these prints look like the product of someone who just completed a KILLER piece of art!
On other Epson papers, my Epson R320 usually prints everything a tiny bit darker than what my screen shows in photoshop, so I always have to lighten my photos a little more than normal in order to get a perfect print. Not so with this paper. The colors and intensity are right on! I've mostly printed nature photos and pet photos with this paper, and I am extremely happy with both!
Great paper at a good price

If you are looking for a good photo paper that will give your images an almost watercolor like result this is it. Combined with Photoshop the results have a soft muted effect that works well with color, sepia or black and white.
When it is right, it is very right...

Let's face it. This lovely paper is not suitable for every image, or every kind of image. But if you like to work creatively, it is a very nice paper to have on hand. When you find the right image for it, I think you'll know before you ever hit print.
I like this paper but...

Reviewer: M,
I like this paper, its got a great fine art rough texture if that's appropriate for the specific images you're working on. But, i find that it will occasionally bleed very detailed images. I found myself liking the papers that have lustre finishes, but it's all a matter of personal taste. I would suggest buying a small amount of a small size to see if you like what it does for your specific work.

Reviewer: Mark Twain,
It is great paper. The instructions say to print on the whitest side. It is very hard for someone with limited vision like me to tell which side is the whitest. Of course I printed my first picture on the wrong side. It was not very good. I turned the paper over and printed it again with spectacular results. E pson should mark the back of the paper.
