A work from a smaller edition (under 100) will have more value than those from a larger print run. The size of the edition is marked by the artist on the bottom of the artwork. Condition is important: tears, fading, foxing (mould), trimming (where a piece has been cut to fit a frame) or inept framing can all affect value, while a signature will always add value.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/div> <\/section> When it comes to artists, prints by Royal Academicians are a safe investment. \u2018You can buy works by Royal Academicians such as Chris Orr or Eileen Cooper for a few hundred pounds. They have a reputation, so if you\u2019re looking for something that will keep its value you\u2019re always better off buying a work by an RA, or a known artist. An artist\u2019s membership of the RA is for life and means their work is shown at the museum. It\u2019s increasingly difficult for artists to show work in galleries, so that exposure is key.\u2019<\/p>\n Twentieth-century masters such as Picasso, Chagall, Matisse or the prolific Mir\u00f3 all produced prints (these are not always signed). Prices for their work has remained static for the last decade, says Caroline, so now is a good time to buy. However, prices for David Hockney have soared in the last decade. \u2018I recently sold a rare Hockney etching for \u00a312,000, which has probably shot up to \u00a320,000 now,\u2019 she says. Other names to look out for include Albert Irvin, Tessa Newcomb and Anne Desmet.<\/p>\n Artichoke Print Workshop<\/a> in London is a studio where artists produce prints for clients including the V&A<\/a> and the British Museum<\/a>. Art presses such as Paragon<\/a>, Advanced Graphics<\/a> and Counter Editions<\/a> also produce and sell exceptional-quality works by a wide range of artists.<\/p> <\/body><\/html>\n By Serena Fokschaner Published: Thursday, 24 November 2022 at 12:00 am \u2018Buy what you like\u2019 is the comforting mantra trotted out to anyone wanting to start an art collection.
