How can you tell if an art print is real?
1 Answer
To tell if an art print is real, first take the time to learn about the artist and the types of prints that they have produced. Identifying characteristics vary based on the print method, and some artists have incorporated certain flourishes or markings that can aid in authentication. Researching the artist and their techniques using information available from trusted online resources can help you determine what to look for. Alternatively, you can take your print to a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer to seek an expert opinion. Find a large selection of art prints on 1stDibs.
