Questions About Artist Proof Etching
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024
    Whether artist’s proofs are more valuable varies. The limited supply of artist’s proofs often makes them more valuable than other prints. Discrepancies between artist’s proofs and the final prints can also increase their value. However, an artist’s proof that has a poor-quality image or is in poor condition may not be worth as much. If you're curious about the value of a particular piece, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can evaluate it for you. Explore a selection of art prints on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2024
    Yes, an artist's proof may be worth more than a regular edition print. The reason for this is that there is a smaller number of artist's proofs since these prints are ones that the artist produces and then holds back rather than offering for sale. Depending on the image quality and overall condition, an artist's proof is usually worth 20% to 50% more than an edition print. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can provide a more specific valuation for your print. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of art prints from some of the world's top galleries and dealers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 30, 2024
    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.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 20, 2024
    The difference between an artist's proof and an edition comes down to purpose. An artist's proof can be thought of as a test run, a print that the artist makes to see how the image appears. Normally, the artist does not intend to sell these proofs. An edition is a print produced for the purpose of sale. You will sometimes see the term "main edition" used in place of edition. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of art prints.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2024
    How much a Norman Rockwell artist's proof is worth depends on its condition, size, history and other factors. Generally, Rockwell's artist's proofs are worth more than standard limited edition prints of the same subject and quality because fewer were made, and selling prices for them are often in the thousands of dollars. Rockwell is among the most revered painters of the 20th century. His figurative and portrait paintings reflect an innocent and idyllic America described by the artist as "life as I would like it to be." For nearly 50 years, he illustrated the covers of The Saturday Evening Post in a rich and emotive style that gave distinctive personalities to his imagined characters. In total, Rockwell created more than 4,000 works of art throughout his life. To get a valuation performed on your artist's proof, use the services of a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer. On 1stDibs, shop a wide variety of Norman Rockwell art.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    Artist proofs often command a higher price because of their rarity.
