Prints can be mass-produced and are copies of the original artwork.
Limited Edition prints are a set number of prints produced, making them more exclusive and collectible.
Limited Run refers to a set number of prints or items produced but doesn’t always include artistic elements like signing or numbering.
Originals are unique, one-of-a-kind pieces created directly by the artist.
In summary, limited edition prints are rarer and more valuable than regular prints, while original artworks are the most unique and expensive because they are one-of-a-kind. Still have questions, Contact us.
