    To know if your Ansel Adams print is real, first check online and print catalogues to see if the photograph is a known work of Ansel Adams. Snapping a photo of your print and then performing a reverse image search can jumpstart this process. If you don't find the photograph attributed to Adams, your piece is unlikely to be real. Should your search prove successful, next look for any signatures and markings on the front and back of the print. Reproductions produced after Adams's work will usually say "Photography by Ansel Adams," while originals may be signed by the photographer or have an Adams stamp or label on the back. If you still need assistance with the evaluation process, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can be of assistance. On 1stDibs, find a collection of Ansel Adams prints.
