Question
I have an old print of shoeing the mare printed in 1884 and I would like to know the price
Thanks

Answer
In general prints if they are in excellent condition can go for
$500 to $1000 if they are "collectable". I depends on the
artist and what the market is paying. If the artist is well
known (like Mary Cassatt) then they can go for more. If you
are planning to sell it, i would suggest contacting an
art dealer in your area and letting them appraise it, they
may also wish to display/sponsor the work. Naturally, if
you live near a large city, then you can get more for
it; eg, here in Dallas, they pay exorbitant prices for
things since the city has more than its share of
millionares.

Hope this helps,

Frank

Expertise

I can (possibly) answer questions regarding art history, technique, theory, and the occasional quandry. In addition to drawing and painting (mainly with acrylics these days), i know a bit about printmaking: Intaglio (etching), relief, offset, transfer and some things about photography. I also use a welding torch to "draw" in metal and then pound the sheets flat and print them. I pretty much "live" in 2D (and much 4D (time); but, 3D is just sort of "thick" version of 2D to me;)

Experience

As an artist I [sic] have shown my art work in both open and juried shows. I have an extensive background in both studio and cultural studies in art and related areas. I currently hold bachelors and master degrees in art and technology. In addition, I write extensively on "art theory". And I'm fairly good at mixing paint.
