How Much is a Limited Edition Photography?
Finding the Right Photography for You
Find a broad range of photography on 1stDibs today.
The first permanent image created by a camera — which materialized during the 1820s — is attributed to Joseph Nicéphore Niépce. The French inventor was on to something for sure. Kodak introduced roll film in the 1880s, allowing photography to become more democratic, although cameras wouldn’t be universally accessible until several decades later.
Digital photographic techniques, software, smartphone cameras and social-networking platforms such as Instagram have made it even easier in the modern era for budding photographers to capture the world around them as well as disseminate their images far and wide.
What might leading figures of visual art such as Andy Warhol have done with these tools at their disposal?
Today, when we aren’t looking at the digital photos that inundate us on our phones, we look to the past to celebrate the photographers who have broken rules as well as records — provocative and prolific artists like Horst P. Horst, Lillian Bassman and Helmut Newton, who altered the face of fashion and portrait photography; visionary documentary photographers such as Gordon Parks, whose best-known work was guided by social justice; and pioneers of street photography such as Henri Cartier-Bresson, who shot for revolutionary travel magazines like Holiday with the likes of globetrotting society lensman Slim Aarons.
Find photographers you may not know in Introspective and The Study — where you’ll read about Berenice Abbott, who positioned herself atop skyscrapers for the perfect shot, or “conceptual artist-adventurer” Charles Lindsay, whose work combines scientific rigor with artistic expression, or Massimo Listri, known for his epic interiors of opulent Old World libraries. Photographer Jeannette Montgomery Barron was given a Kodak camera as a child. Later, she shot on Polaroid film before buying her first 35mm camera in her teens. Barron's stunning portraits of Jean-Michel Basquiat, Warhol and other artists chronicle a crucial chapter of New York’s cultural history.
Throughout the past two centuries, photographers have used their medium to create expressive work that has resonated for generations. Shop a voluminous collection of this powerful fine photography on 1stDibs. Search by photographer to find the perfect piece for your living room wall, or spend some time with the work organized under various categories, such as landscape photography, nude photography and more.

- What are limited-edition prints?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019
In limited editions, a fixed number of prints is produced from one plate with the understanding that no further ones will be made.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A limited edition lithograph, or offset lithograph, is a mechanical reproduction of an existing artwork. The reproduction is usually not done by the artist themself, though sometimes might be signed by them after printing. You’ll find a variety of limited edition lithographs from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 27, 2024What is a good number for limited edition prints depends on what you mean by good. If you're wondering how many prints in a series are best from a collector's standpoint, the smaller the number of prints, the more valuable the individual pieces are likely to be. In other words, the prints in a run of 30 will be rarer than a run of 100, so it is possible that the smaller run will be more valuable. If by "good" you mean which number in a particular series is best to buy, the answer is that there really isn't a better number. The print marked 1/30 and the one marked 30/30 will be identical and of equal value, assuming they are kept in similar condition. However, when a gallery sells prints in numerical order, the price may go up as the prints sell. In that case, you may pay more for print 30/30 than the buyer for 1/30 did. As the price increases, the extra amount paid could mean a lower return on investment. Shop a large collection of art prints on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024The difference between a lithograph and a limited edition print is the specificity of the terms. A limited edition print is any artwork that an artist produces in a limited number for sale to collectors. A lithograph is one type of print that may be made available as a limited edition. To make a lithograph, the artist draws or paints on a stone surface with an oil-based substance, such as a greasy crayon or oily wash known as a tusche. The stone is then covered with water, which is repelled by the oily areas. Oil-based ink is then applied to the wet stone, adhering only to the oily image. The stone is then covered with a sheet of paper and run through a press. Beyond lithographs, limited edition prints can be woodblock prints, engravings, screenprints, monoprints and other types of prints. Find a diverse assortment of lithographs and other prints on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2024Yes, some limited-edition lithographs are worth something. The value of lithographs depends on the artist, the age, the number of pieces in the series and the current demand. In addition, the condition of the lithograph will impact its value. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can give you an estimate as to how much your piece is worth. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of lithographs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2024Yes, many art lovers believe that limited edition prints are worth buying. Because artists produce only a certain number of limited edition pieces, prints from these series may increase in value over time. Prints are also generally an economical way to grow an art collection based on your interests. However, whether or not it’s worth investing in limited edition prints is totally subjective! At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection. Find art prints and other art on 1stDibs.

- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2024Yes, some limited edition art prints are worth money. Because only a certain number of prints are produced in a limited series, they often increase in value over the years. Factors like the artist, age, image quality and overall condition of the print will determine how much a particular piece is worth. To find out the value of any prints you own, enlist the help of a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer. Explore a diverse assortment of art prints on 1stDibs.
