numbered print
Limited edition artwork
A numbered print is a reproduction of an artwork marked with its position in a limited edition, typically written as a fraction where the bottom number indicates the total prints made and the top indicates that specific copy: a numbered print, 45/200.
The numbering suggests scarcity and collectibility, distinguishing these from unlimited reproductions.
