How To Tell If a Painting is an Original or a Reproduction
Timecodes:
hi I'm Ryan Laster and this is last
year's fine art and antiques we get
asked a lot of questions we're doing a
new video series or hopefully we can
answer some of those common questions
that we hear keep watching and maybe
we'll answer a question you have people
always ask how can you tell if an item
is an original or reproduction you will
see two different pieces of art and I
will show you the differences between
the two first is a limited edition print
by Bob Timberlake this item has been
titled numbered and signed by the artist
himself some people may think this kind
of art is original but it's only
originality is the number right here
this tells us there are at least 1000 of
these in circulation here are some other
things to look for is the art behind
glass is the art signed more than once
and when magnified
can you see colored dots in the image
your reproduction may have none or all
of these qualities if you're still not
sure ask an expert this next piece of
art is an original acrylic on canvas by
Frank Rowland
notice how this item has lots of texture
it's best to not touch the paint with
your bare hands as the oils on your
hands can damage the paint over time but
if you can feel texture chances are your
art is original here are some other
points to consider is your art painted
on canvas can you see brushstrokes in
the paint is your art only signed once
and when magnified do you see only solid
color your original artwork may have
none or all of these qualities if you're
still not sure ask an expert hope you
