reproductions
Printed art copies
Reproductions are copies of original works—typically art, furniture, or documents.
A reproduction of a Rembrandt hangs where the original would be too valuable or unavailable.
The word can carry a slight taint of inauthenticity: It's not an original, just a reproduction.
In biology, reproductions would be instances of reproducing, though the singular form dominates that sense.
