Are numbered prints valuable?

1 Answer
Are numbered prints valuable?
Whether numbered prints are valuable varies. Having a number doesn't necessarily indicate that a print will sell at a high price point. However, numbering can indicate that a print is original, which can have a positive effect on its value. Factors that determine how much a print is worth include its age, maker, the quality of the image, the condition of the paper and the number of prints produced in the series. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of art prints.
