Why Should You Buy Art Prints Rather Than Original Paintings?

Print is a generic word for an image created on paper using a press and a previously engraved and inked board (wood, metal, stone, etc.) An art print is a copy of an original painting. Often these prints are massproduced using what is known as a photomechanical process in which the image of the source is photographically transferred to create fine art prints of the work. Come to our Art Prints Sydney items at Art Print Australia to get the best experience of art prints.

How do art prints differ from originals?

The major distinction between original art and art prints is that an original is a handcrafted work by the artist. Thanks to that, the original becomes a unique work, a unique creation. An art print is merely a replica of the original artwork; it may be one of a few or one of many. An art print lacks the textured lines of an artist's brush and is usually very flat. If you look closely, you will typically see a dot matrix pattern on the print that resembles a picture from a magazine. The art print also has sharp, clean edges and doesn't have the roughness found on an original hand-painted canvas. Original prints also lack the pencil lines that tell of the artist's sketch before painting, and the work may even have an identification number or copyright symbol.

Save your money

Reproduction art prints are always cheaper than original paintings because they are "open edition", meaning there is no limit to the number of prints that can be printed and sold. Ideal for a cost-effective way to spruce up your home without compromising on quality or longevity.

No sacrifices in quality

Giclée art prints are non-fading, high-resolution, highly pigmented reproductions. You get all the colour and tonal variations, details and visual texture of the original painting, and the print lasts forever. They are the new prints made from the original ones that provide exceptional quality. You can get the same at our New Prints Sydney items at Art Prints Australia.

Flexibility in size and shape

An art print is a reproduction, so unlike an original painting, it can be printed on any size or shape of paper. So a large 1 m x 2 m rectangular original painting can be cut to a small 20 x 20 cm print or vice versa. This gives you the flexibility to get just the right print for your home and space, buy a mix of different prints or create a mismatched gallery wall. There are many more possibilities available.

Less purchase obligation

An art print is not a big-ticket item. If you don't live in your "forever" home (if you're abroad, on vacation, renting and not sure when your lease is up, planning to move soon, digital nomad, or just not sure when you'll come next) but still want to feel at home, there are some painting prints that make the space your own, the perfect affordable option.
