Identifying Prints
E-mail Print
September 2012

Many things determine the price of an antique or collectible. Prints are especially difficult to judge if you're a beginner. You must learn to recognize a print, etching, engraving, lithograph, chromolithograph, photograph, and modern copies of oil paintings, watercolors, pastels, hand-colored prints or enhanced oil paintings. Each one is in a different price range.  See Kovels' online price guide for prices of all of these types of pictures.

I have a pencil drawing signed by this artist and dated 1881. I'm not sure if it
is original or not. It also has a Frank Wellington signature. It is of a man
holding a snake and there are colonial and indians in the picture. Are you able
to tell me anything about this picture.

Thank You,
Debbie

I have an etching of "The Mill" by Rembrandt that is signed it is about
in a 10 x 10 frame bought it a yard sale for $5.00. I read that only a few
prints had been made from the original and that this particular etching is one
of the rarer ones but how can I find out if it is real. I know little about art
and don't have the money to get an appraisal can you help me or direct me in the
right direction of it's worth. Thank You, Regina H.
