Is it worth buying a signed print?
1 Answer

Many art lovers believe that a signed print is worth buying. Art prints make it possible to build a collection of art at a lower price than what you'd typically expect to pay for paintings, and you can choose from thousands of options. Signed prints are particularly desirable because they often translate to added value on the secondary market, particularly when the artist signed them by hand. However, whether or not it's worth investing in signed art prints is totally subjective! At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection. Find art prints and other art on 1stDibs.
