Limited Edition
A limited edition print is an original image limited to a predetermined print quantity.
The edition is often signed by the artist and individual prints are always numbered. The numbers on the print denote the individual piece number in the edition over the total edition size. For example, 3/125 is the 3rd print in a series of 125.
Artists can opt to not sign the Limited Edition by offering a “Certificate of Authenticity”.
Artists can opt to have their signature and/or date removed from the original, thereby printing a Limited Edition Giclée and then hand signing each print.
Artists are responsible to keep good records as to how many prints have been sold, to who and how many are left in the edition to be sold.
Artists can only offer the same image as a separate edition by changing the size of print, or the medium it’s printed on. Say you print and sell 50 limited editions sized 22 x 30 on fine art paper. You can then start a new limited edition by changing the size to 11 x 15 (must be a big difference in size) and or medium, such as now printing the image on canvas.
