Luxury Collectors Limited Editions (LCLE).
“The Numbered Series”
A limited edition print is an art print that an artist chooses to limit to a specific number of copies, that are produced. The artist carefully selects the edition size before production, and no more prints can be made after the edition sells out. Limited edition prints are often signed and numbered, with the numbering usually located in the lower left-hand corner.
Limited Editions That Have A Fixed Number Of Prints Produced
What is a Life So Wild Images of the Natural World (LSWI) LCLE, you ask. Our LCLE’s following along with the above information. Are limited editions that have a fixed number of prints produced, thus making the print more scarce, valuable and collectable. Each of the LSWI LCLE images selected for this series and for print, are signed and marked with both their edition size and number. For example… (4 of 250, or 15/50, etc.). Meaning at what point in the edition run it was struck and printed.
Specifically Selected By The Artist
All images selected for the LCLE series are specifically selected by the artist, Jeff. As well as the size of the editions. Each LCLE whether its purchased in rolled print-only form, gallery glass or gallery metal displays. Will come with a signed Certificate of Authenticity (COA) from Life So Wild Images of the Natural World, by the artist Jeffrey J. Soulliere and dated. The COA will include your name, the dimensions of your purchase. Title of image including a thumbnail image of the art and the location of the event. A short artist description of the scene/event captured. The LCLE series numbers specific to your print and/or display.
The basic price structure of collecting LCLE are that the lower numbered releases such as for example 1/10 or 1/200 costs are higher than say a release of 1/1250. However, the artist reserves the right to release an image with a lower number with a price schedule of a higher numbered release. As a thank you and show of appreciation to the collectors and first time buyers.
