What is the difference between a print and a reproduction?
A true print for the purpose of our site is a work that the artist has created by hand, and is created in such a way as to preserve the intention of the original work, such as with an etching, a woodcut, a linocut, or a silk-screened image. A reproduction is where the intent and purpose of the original work has been altered to the extent that the image becomes mass-produced and which loses all connection to the original.
