There is A Fine Art Print a phrase used to describe an extremely higher quality print.

Fine art prints are usually printed from digital files using archival quality inks and onto acid free art paper.

These colors when mixed together are able to produce millions of colours that are different. They have a color range than is much larger than your average large format printer.

What exactly are prints? Sold and an misconception novice collectors tend to have is that all prints are reproductions -- such as posters hanging on a dorm room wall reproduced. Yet the truth of the matter is that prints on those occasions when they do take the form of a poster, are original artworks in their own right.

An extension of becoming genuinely interested in an artist's work which should guide one's curiosity, although it's not simply a matter of precaution. While believing it is an authentic work, overall, the thing to be wary about is buying a forgery. One should make sure whatever signature a print bears is valid since discounted cute rat art from Virtosu Art Gallery does raise its value.

Persons have been known to take a print and forge the artist's touch. Since a print signed in pencil by the artist is worth more than the exact same composition unsigned, one must be especially cautious if collecting works by A-list artists like Picasso, Salvador Dali, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, etc.. But impressions aren't always things that are bad. Art buyers on a budget are known to look for unsigned impressions of the same print -- knowing that aesthetically there is not any gap, while the savings are monumental.

Whether purchasing prints online or in a fair, one should note how many variants of a print series there is. A print from an edition of 100 is much more valuable than a print from an edition of 1,000. Similarly, a monoprint, of which there's only one, will be worth even more. Make sure the price appears to be adequate to the rarity of the print. An artist will have decided well in advance how many prints she or he will make. It can't be added to if the prints occur to sell once an edition is finished. Aside from the prints available, there are also proofs or artist copies, which are generally not available to the general public.
