What makes a photographic print collectible?

By Beate Marie Pique

Collectible photographic prints are not defined by resolution alone. Their value lies in the full chain: print medium, colour management, acrylic glass, backing panel, certificate and careful delivery.

With Diasec® prints, the image is bonded behind acrylic glass. This protects the work and adds depth. A dibond backing panel creates flatness and stability. A frame is available only on request and only visually completes the object when that has been agreed.

For collectors, edition details and certification matter just as much. A fine art photography work should be traceable: title, size, edition, material and provenance belong to the object.
