Are prints of famous paintings worth anything?
1 Answer
Whether prints of famous paintings are worth anything varies. Some artists, such as Andy Warhol and Jasper Johns, made prints after their own paintings, signing and numbering them by hand. These pieces may have considerable value, depending on their condition, historical significance and other characteristics. Prints of famous paintings made by third parties that don't bear the original artist's signature may not have much value. However, there are exceptions to the rule. To find out how much a print may be worth, consider using the services of a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a large selection of art prints.
