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.)

  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024
    Yes, many art lovers believe that buying a Picasso print is worth it. A prolific and revolutionary artist, Pablo Picasso had a tremendous impact on the development of 20th-century modern art. Although he is best known for his association with the Cubist movement, his influence extended to Surrealism, neoclassicism and Expressionism, making his pieces desirable to many collectors. However, whether or not it’s worth investing in Picasso 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 Pablo Picasso prints and other art on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2024
    Yes, some Picasso prints are worth money based on their subject, condition and other factors. In 2022, the sale of Le Repas Frugal set a new record for Picasso prices when it sold for more than $7.6 million at an auction at Christie's in London. Picasso was a prolific artist, and over the course of his life, he produced more than 2,400 prints. If you're in possession of one, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can evaluate it and give you an idea of how much it may be worth. Shop a variety of Pablo Picasso prints on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Pablo Picasso enjoyed making prints and did so throughout his life. It’s estimated that he made approximately 2,400 different prints through a wide variety of techniques including etchings, lithographs and linocut. Shop a selection of Picasso pieces from some of the world’s top art dealers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To make his lino prints, Pablo Picasso would carve part of an image into a block, apply ink and press it onto his medium. He would then add more carvings, apply more ink and repeat several times until he finished the image. On 1stDibs, find a selection of Pablo Picasso prints.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 5, 2024
    A signed Picasso print can be worth quite a bit of money. In 2022, a signed print titled "Le Repas frugal" ("The Frugal Repast") by the revolutionary Spanish artist sold for $8 million.

    While a Cubist painting by the artist sold for $179 million in 2015, the price range for original Pablo Picasso prints is vast. A signed Picasso print can garner millions of dollars at auction, even as a lesser-known lithograph might sell for somewhere in the low five figures.

    It's important to note that determining the value of any collectible depends on a variety of factors. Fine art prints are more valuable when they are signed by the artist, and experts suggest that a print's value can gradually increase over time. A signed Picasso print's precise worth, however, will depend on its condition (paper is fragile!), subject matter and provenance.

    Larger prints as well as works in color are likely to be worth more than their smaller counterparts in black and white. The value of a print is also informed by whether the work is editioned or not, as well as the size and number of the edition. (A print from an edition run of 50 is theoretically more valuable than one from a run of 200.)

    Picasso created "The Frugal Repast" at the end of what is known as his "Blue Period," in which the artist stuck to a monochromatic palette of blue and blue-green for most of the paintings he produced between 1901 and 1904.

    The etching was made in 1904 in Paris using a recycled zinc plate that Picasso scraped clean of what was previously there. The print is part of what came to be known as the "Saltimbanque Suite," the artist's first major body of work in printmaking. And while Picasso had no formal training in printmaking, he was a tireless innovator with media, creating more than 20,000 paintings, drawings, prints, ceramics and sculptures throughout his lifetime.

  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 30, 2023
    Whether plate-signed prints are worth anything depends on the artist, the rarity of the piece, its condition and other factors. While artists’ editions tend to be more affordable and available than his or her unique works, and so new collectors are often directed toward prints as a starting point, accessibility, however, does not mean prints appreciate at a different pace from other mediums. The market for paintings increases parallel to the prints market (and a signed work may be more valuable to collectors than an unsigned print). A certified appraiser or art industry professional can evaluate specific prints and determine their value. On 1stDibs, shop a range of prints from some of the world’s top galleries.
