Is an artist's proof valuable?
1 Answer

Yes, an artist's proof may be valuable. Generally, an artist's proof may sell for 20 to 50% more than the going price for a limited edition print from its series. However, the value of prints varies greatly depending on the artist, subject, age and condition. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can give you an idea of how much a particular proof may be worth. On 1stDibs, explore a wide range of art prints.
