What constitutes an original print?
One thing seems to be certain for a work of art to be considered an original print, it must have been produced by hand, one at a time to the artist’s personal standard. Ideally, a fixed, limited number should be produced, the fewer the better. Among the many aspects of the color lithograph and giclée that is attractive to the artist is the ease of creation, multiple prints of the same work of art, immediacy, accuracy, durability, and perhaps the most important is the “hands-on” aspect of the process.
