Finding the Right prints-works-on-paper for You
Decorating with fine art prints — whether they’re figurative prints, abstract prints or another variety — has always been a practical way of bringing a space to life as well as bringing works by an artist you love into your home.
Pursued in the 1960s and ’70s, largely by Pop artists drawn to its associations with mass production, advertising, packaging and seriality, as well as those challenging the primacy of the Abstract Expressionist brushstroke, printmaking was embraced in the 1980s by painters and conceptual artists ranging from David Salle and Elizabeth Murray to Adrian Piper and Sherrie Levine.
Printmaking is the transfer of an image from one surface to another. An artist takes a material like stone, metal, wood or wax, carves, incises, draws or otherwise marks it with an image, inks or paints it and then transfers the image to a piece of paper or other material.
Fine art prints are frequently confused with their more commercial counterparts. After all, our closest connection to the printed image is through mass-produced newspapers, magazines and books, and many people don’t realize that even though prints are editions, they start with an original image created by an artist with the intent of reproducing it in a small batch. Fine art prints are created in strictly limited editions — 20 or 30 or maybe 50 — and are always based on an image created specifically to be made into an edition.
Many people think of revered Dutch artist Rembrandt as a painter but may not know that he was a printmaker as well. His prints have been preserved in time along with the work of other celebrated printmakers such as Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalí and Andy Warhol. These fine art prints are still highly sought after by collectors.
“It’s another tool in the artist’s toolbox, just like painting or sculpture or anything else that an artist uses in the service of mark making or expressing him- or herself,” says International Fine Print Dealers Association (IFPDA) vice president Betsy Senior, of New York’s Betsy Senior Fine Art, Inc.
Because artist’s editions tend to be more affordable and available than his or her unique works, they’re more accessible and can be a great opportunity to bring a variety of colors, textures and shapes into a space.
For tight corners, select small fine art prints as opposed to the oversized bold piece you’ll hang as a focal point in the dining area. But be careful not to choose something that is too big for your space. And feel free to lean into it if need be — not every work needs picture-hanging hooks. Leaning a larger fine art print against the wall behind a bookcase can add a stylish installation-type dynamic to your living room. (Read more about how to arrange wall art here.)

Questions About Art And Lithographs
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022No, a lithograph isn’t technically an original work of art. It’s a type of print, but a lithograph is generally more prized than a common print because each lithograph is hand-made by the artist through the process of lithography. They’re usually made in much lower quantities than prints, which are easier to produce on a large scale. On 1stDibs, shop a large collection of lithographs from various artists.
- What is an after lithograph?2 Answers1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A lithograph is a piece of artwork created using oil and water. An after lithograph is a copy of an existing painting done after the original painting’s creation. Pablo Picasso would have after lithographs created of his famous works, usually by another approved artist. On 1stDibs, find a collection of lithographs from some of the world’s top sellers.1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022An “after” lithograph, or after print, refers to a print that is made by an artist based on an original painting or a work by a different artist. For example, a lithographer could make an engraving based on a painting by Picasso, and the resulting print would be “after” Picasso. Shop a collection of after lithography from some of the world’s top art dealers on 1stDibs.
- What is a numbered lithograph?1 AnswerLilac Gallery Ltd.March 17, 2021When a lithograph is numbered by the artist, it means that this particular artwork is from a 'limited edition' series. As when the lithographs are not numbered, they would be from an open edition and the total number similar of artworks is unknown. When a lithograph is numbered it usually also comes hand-signed by the artist.
- What is a lithograph poster?1 Answer
International Fine Arts Consortium - IFAC ArtsMarch 22, 2021It's a print using an offset lithograph press. Although still used today it has been primarily replaced with digital printing. - What is an original lithograph?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021An original lithograph is a print made by way of a specific printing method (one of the most commonly used methods in the 20th and 21st centuries). With respect to lithography, the process begins by drawing on or painting on a stone surface with an oil-based substance, such as a greasy crayon or tusche (an oily wash). The stone is then covered with water, which is repelled by the oily areas. Oil-based ink is then applied to the wet stone, adhering only to the oily image. The stone is then covered with a sheet of paper and run through a press.
- What is a signed lithograph?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 16, 2024A signed lithograph is an art print produced with a particular method that bears the artist's real signature, signed in ink. The term lithograph refers to a print made by drawing an image onto a stone, etching the stone with chemicals and then applying ink. The term signed lithograph is different from a plate-signed lithograph, where the artist adds their signature to the stone to transfer it onto finished prints rather than signing their works by hand. Explore a large collection of lithographs on 1stDibs.
- Is a lithograph an original?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 16, 2024No, a lithograph is not an original. Lithographs are prints, which are authorized reproductions of works produced by artists. To produce a lithograph, an artist applies an image to a stone. Then, they treat the stone with chemicals to impart the image into it. Finally, they apply ink and transfer the image onto paper or another medium. Shop a large selection of lithographs on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023Yes, there is a market for lithographs. However, demand for this type of artwork varies based on the artist, subject, age, condition and other factors. Fine art prints are created in strictly limited editions — of 20 or 30 or maybe 50 — and are always based on an image created specifically to be made into an edition. Because an artist’s editions tend to be more affordable and available than his or her unique works, new collectors are often directed toward prints as a starting point. Experts suggest that as collecting prints online has become more common, the market for lithographs and other kinds of prints is poised to flourish in the years to come. On 1stDibs, find a variety of lithographs and other prints from some of the world’s top galleries.
- What is a genuine lithograph?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A genuine lithograph is when an artist creates a piece of art on a stone or metal plate that is re-inked every time the image is pressed to paper. To ensure you purchase authentic, high-quality lithographs, look for a reputable seller. Shop a selection of expertly vetted lithograph art on 1stDibs.
- Are Lithographs Valuable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021The most valuable lithographs are ones made by the artist, rather than someone mimicking a famous work of art. Original lithographs can be worth tens of thousands of dollars.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
In a hand-pulled lithograph, the image is painted or drawn by hand on the plate, which is then inked and used to make an impression on the print medium; in an offset lithograph, the inked image is transferred to a rubber blanket or roller, which is then used to mass-produce the prints.

Like a lithograph, a serigraph (or screen print) is a print, but in this case, the image to be printed is stenciled onto fabric, instead of being painted onto a stone or metal plate, as in a lithograph.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 3, 2024The difference between a lithograph and an etching is that while both are types of prints, they are made using different techniques. With respect to lithography, the image to be printed is drawn or painted on a stone or metal plate with an oil-based substance, such as a greasy crayon or tusche (an oily wash). The stone is then covered with water, which is repelled by the oily areas. Oil-based ink is then applied to the wet stone, adhering only to the oily image. Afterward, the stone is covered with a sheet of paper and run through a press.
Etching is a way of incising lines in a metal plate by first drawing on an acid-resistant coating, or ground, to reveal the metal beneath. The plate is then submerged in acid, which “bites” the lines into the metal plate. The ground is then removed and the plate is inked for pressing.
