Are Rembrandt prints worth anything?
1 Answer

Yes, Rembrandt prints may be worth something. In 2018, a drypoint print by the Dutch artist called Christ Presented to the People sold for more than $3 million. Rembrandt's foremost contribution to the history of printmaking was his transformation of the etching process from a relatively new technique into a true art form. Few of his paintings left the Dutch Republic in his lifetime, but his prints were circulated throughout Europe, bolstering his reputation. Generally, prints that bear the artist's signature are worth more than later prints based on his originals. The historical significance, provenance, image quality and overall condition will also impact the potential value. If you own a Rembrandt print, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can provide you with an estimated fair market value for the piece.
