Limited-edition prints at the Don Foundation: lithographs, etchings, silkscreens and other prints, including signed and numbered editions, with printing technique, edition size and year stated.
An estampe is an impression pulled from a printing surface the artist prepared themselves. It is not a copy of an existing painting but a work in its own right: the image is made for the stone, block or plate, and the sheet pulled from it counts as an original. This is what separates it from a reproduction or poster printed from a photograph of someone else’s work.
The edition is limited and usually written on the sheet as a fraction – 56/250 means the fifty-sixth impression of two hundred and fifty – with the artist’s pencil signature alongside. E.A. or A.P. marks an artist’s proof outside the main edition.
The collection holds 53 works. The principal technique is lithography, alongside serigraphy, silkscreen and etching with drypoint, and sheets on Arches – the French cotton paper traditionally chosen for fine printing. The price range is from 30 000 to 500 000 ₽.
