art print

Framed image copy

An art print is a reproduction of an artwork, typically a painting or photograph, printed on paper or canvas for wider distribution.

Art prints range from inexpensive posters to limited-edition reproductions signed and numbered by the artist: She bought an art print of the Monet for her office.

The term distinguishes mass reproductions from original works or hand-pulled prints like etchings and lithographs.
