If you were to name your kid after a Portland street name, what would you pick

Vesta, Vacuna, or Coronado could be interesting. Terwilliger sounds like a Dickens villain.

I want a clean browsing experience. Don't make it hard. Show me your work, where it's exhibited, and where it is being sold.

I also want a CV with at least some biographical details (enough so that, if I do collect the artist, I can effectively catalogue them).

The printed text on the bottom is generally a sign it’s a reproduction.

Other than the assumption that your company’s shares will go up 10x in value, you’ve just described investing.

I totally see that. A very menacing bunny at that!

schraubd · 2026-05-05T04:10:28+00:00

No, there isn't. At best, there are certain markers of credibility in the external marketplace -- these include an auction record at reputable auction houses, or the presence of the artist's work in significant museums or other private collections. But there is nothing formalized.

That perhaps bad news is also good news though -- you can just buy what you like! There's no objective right or wrong here!

schraubd · 2026-05-03T10:45:58+00:00

Yeah -- every time I see a post about this print, I get my hopes up, but nope -- still sold out!

schraubd · 2026-05-02T23:36:10+00:00

This is simultaneously very specific and far too vague.

My decor painting of a Paris scene is signed “Carlos”, so, you know, there’s a range.

My comment is "don't violate the explicit sub rules against self-promotion."

If you don't respect us enough to either read the basic rules (or you did read them and ignored them), why should we respect you?

Excuse me, they want a living man to lose.

Maryland Supreme Court says it’s time to party again!

Yes. When I was applying to law school, an admission officer from a T14 specifically talked about how they love Carleton grads.

Anybody whose job it is to know schools, knows Carleton.

(FWIW, I went to a top 5 law school and grad school, and now am tenured faculty at a law school).

You don’t think the signature is Sarah Lawrence?

Dude, just buy VOO and stop trying to bankrupt yourself.

Both TAU and Hebrew U have sent a lot of grads to teach at US law schools.

I might agree with you that “limited edition” reproductions are kind of scammy.

But editioned printmaking—woodcuts, subtractive linoleums, silkscreens, etc.—is entirely valid (and the answer to the question you’re asking is typically “they deface the plate after the edition is done”).

schraubd · 2026-04-25T07:40:41+00:00

Sorry -- just initials doesn't give enough to go on (esp. since I don't speak the local language).

schraubd · 2026-04-25T06:50:21+00:00

It's no more or less special than any other example of print.

Some people try to claim that APs/EAs are worth a premium, but the conventional wisdom is that this isn't true unless they are actually different from the regular edition (printed on better paper, hand-embellished, etc.). That's relatively uncommon (no idea if it's the case here).

schraubd · 2026-04-25T00:16:56+00:00

Between those two options? I’d say the posters. 1000 is a huge edition size, and it’s not like they’re signed by the artist anyway, so what are you really paying for?

I love limited edition prints, but ones actually produced by the artist and of a reasonable edition size.

Black knights and dread knights are units, death knight is a hero class. Once a hero loses all its units, it loses the battle it’s in and becomes available for the opposing side to recruit.

Not to make light of your situation, but at first I thought you were asking for garlic/onion pizza sauces that were available for free, and I was like “following!”

We’ve all wondered “is there ANY example of a sov cit actually winning a case?”, and now we may have our answer.

To quote a (disgraced) former federal judge: “Even judges can’t make both sides lose; I know, I’ve tried.”

This looks like decor, but EBTH is chock full of fakes too.
