Limited Edition Prints Edmonton - What Is So Special About Limited Edition Art
Limited edition prints are art reproduced from an original composition in a limited amount set out by the given artist or publisher. The total amount of art pieces created is set out when the piece is originally reproduced; this is called the "editions size." Edition sizes range from 10 to 100000 and often the smaller the edition size, the greater the value of the print. Common editions include PP (Publisher's Proof), AP (Artist's Proof), and S/N (signed and numbered). A given piece's certificate of authenticity should outline the total edition size including its sub-editions.Limited edition pieces are also price controlled by their respective publisher or artist. This means when a piece is first published, it has an "issue price" that dictates what all galleries will sell it for to start. When the piece is no longer available from the publisher, it becomes "sold out" and its value begins to increase. As the piece gets rarer to find in galleries its price will continue to grow.
