Questions About Antique Printing Machines
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 20, 2024
    Yes, some antique prints are worth something. There is often a market for prints at least 100 years old, especially those produced by Old Masters, such as Rembrandt, Albrecht Dürer and Francisco Goya. However, prices do vary based on the maker, historical significance, image quality, medium, series size, condition and other factors. If you'd like an estimate as to the value of a particular print in your collection, you may wish to work with a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of art prints.
