Hi Boris,
> The pictures I liked in museums were always printed on matte paper.�
Matte paper is easy to use spottone on, ie, fix those little blemishes
of age, lens, dust etc.
> I really havent seen prints from "big artists" in a museum.� What paper are
> they
printed on?
No idea, niether have I
> Why is glossy paper more popular?
People at home like glossy/shiny things, glossy paper is also
easier for the home user to clean/wipe and gives that crisp
digital look, it doesnt matter if the subject is so out of focus :o)
And as Jim said, matte paper gives the image a nice soft
look depending on the type of matte used.
Cheers
