What is a limited edition?
A limited edition is produced in a set limited quantity. Each piece in the edition is identical and is considered an original. Limited edition photographs are generally more valuable because of the limited number available. Once a photograph is sold out, it will not be released again in that particular size.
What is a Certificate of Authenticity (COA)?
A Certificate of Authenticity is a 4.5 x 6.5 inch card with The Print Atelier logo that’s signed by the Photographer. A COA accompanies each print and includes the Photographer’s name, artwork title, size, edition number, date of printing and paper type.
Handling your print
How do I care for my print?
When handling your print, use the white art-handling cotton gloves we have provided with your print. If you will not be framing your print right away, it can be stored flat in a drawer in its original packaging. If you received your print in a tube, unroll the print and weigh it down flat with books or a flat weight. Most importantly, keep your print away from direct sun, humidity and heat. The Certificate of Authenticity can be kept with your print or preserved separately.
