Know what you're buying

Please be aware that some of our prints have a border which may include the artist's name, the title of the picture and other wording. The 'Image size' dimensions above refer to the image alone, and 'Paper size' dimensions refer to the full poster to include the border.

Print Quality
All of Easyart's reproduction prints (see below for definition) are printed using the latest offset-lithographic techniques to extremely high quality standards.

Print sizes
The print sizes that we show are rounded to the nearest centimetre, and relate to the image size. The prints themselves often come with a border, sometimes with titling on it, so the overall paper size may be a few centimetres larger.

Original
Done by the artist's own fair hand, usually one-of-a-kind.

Reproduction Print
A copy or facsimile of an original work: that is, not the real McCoy. Reproductions can be limited, which means they are part of a finite series, or they can be open-ended which means there's no limit to the number that can be produced.

Reproduction Photograph
A copy or facsimile of a photograph: that is, not a print from the original negative.

Poster
An image produced mainly for advertising purposes, such as a movie or theatre poster.

Limited Edition Print
A limited series of impressions of a given image, usually fewer than 300, each signed and numbered by the artist. Limited edition prints can be made in several ways including

Silk screen
Using a thin coating of wax, the artist creates an image on a fine mesh screen, often made of silk. When ink is forced though the screen, it creates an impression of the original image on paper or fabric.

Etching
Using a special needle, the artist draws onto a metal plate coated with wax. When the plate is submerged in an acid bath, the chemical bites through the metal where the wax has been removed, leaving an impression of the artist's drawing. Once the plate is cleaned of wax, the artist rolls ink onto it, then uses it to make impressions on paper.

Lithograph
Using a greasy crayon, the artist first draws an image on a stone, metal or plastic plate, then wets this plate with water. When ink is applied to the wet plate, it clings to the crayon marks and rolls off the unmarked surfaces, creating an impression of the original drawing when pressed on paper. For coloured lithographs, separate plates are prepared for each colour.

Hand-coloured Restrike Engraving
Prints made by trained printmakers using original Victorian plates, then hand-painted by skilled watercolourists.
