Edition Number
The edition number is the specific number assigned to a print or artwork within an edition, usually indicated as a fraction.
For example, the first print in an edition of 100 might be marked as 1/100. The edition number can provide insight into the value of the piece; earlier numbers are sometimes considered more valuable, although this is not a universal rule. Knowing the edition number can be crucial for collectors and galleries as it adds another layer of information about the artwork's provenance and exclusivity.

We collaborate with artists to create both limited editions and works on paper.
A limited edition is a set number of similar or identical artworks. The size of the edition denotes the total number of artworks that will ever be made, underscoring their value.
Framing options vary for each piece and are listed on the individual artwork pages. Our standard glazing offer is a minimum 90% UV acrylic plexiglass, or you can upgrade to an anti reflective premium acrylic.
Yes, 100%. We work directly with our artists to create editions that accurately represent their body of work. Additionally, every artist personally reviews and approves their final editions.
Every artwork is signed or stamped, and individually numbered. You will also receive a stamped and numbered certificate of authenticity.
No—the copyright is not transferred to the purchaser of the edition.
