Questions About First Edition Print
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    In limited editions, a fixed number of prints is produced from one plate with the understanding that no further ones will be made.

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 27, 2024
    What is a good number for limited edition prints depends on what you mean by good. If you're wondering how many prints in a series are best from a collector's standpoint, the smaller the number of prints, the more valuable the individual pieces are likely to be. In other words, the prints in a run of 30 will be rarer than a run of 100, so it is possible that the smaller run will be more valuable. If by "good" you mean which number in a particular series is best to buy, the answer is that there really isn't a better number. The print marked 1/30 and the one marked 30/30 will be identical and of equal value, assuming they are kept in similar condition. However, when a gallery sells prints in numerical order, the price may go up as the prints sell. In that case, you may pay more for print 30/30 than the buyer for 1/30 did. As the price increases, the extra amount paid could mean a lower return on investment. Shop a large collection of art prints on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024
    The difference between a lithograph and a limited edition print is the specificity of the terms. A limited edition print is any artwork that an artist produces in a limited number for sale to collectors. A lithograph is one type of print that may be made available as a limited edition. To make a lithograph, the artist draws or paints on a stone surface with an oil-based substance, such as a greasy crayon or oily wash known as a tusche. The stone is then covered with water, which is repelled by the oily areas. Oil-based ink is then applied to the wet stone, adhering only to the oily image. The stone is then covered with a sheet of paper and run through a press. Beyond lithographs, limited edition prints can be woodblock prints, engravings, screenprints, monoprints and other types of prints. Find a diverse assortment of lithographs and other prints on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2024
    Yes, many art lovers believe that limited edition prints are worth buying. Because artists produce only a certain number of limited edition pieces, prints from these series may increase in value over time. Prints are also generally an economical way to grow an art collection based on your interests. However, whether or not it’s worth investing in limited edition prints is totally subjective! At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection. Find art prints and other art on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    Artist proofs often command a higher price because of their rarity.

  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2024
    Yes, some limited edition art prints are worth money. Because only a certain number of prints are produced in a limited series, they often increase in value over the years. Factors like the artist, age, image quality and overall condition of the print will determine how much a particular piece is worth. To find out the value of any prints you own, enlist the help of a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer. Explore a diverse assortment of art prints on 1stDibs.
