Wyland Artist Proof Thumbprints
We received our Wyland art portfolio. He did the most bizarre thing: he put his thumbprint on the prints. Up close it is clear what it is, but you step back and it just looks like a big black blob on the artwork. MAS and I discussed it for a while, then I called up the gallery and asked about this.
The reason is that it's an artist proof. We got number 17/200 artist proofs there are 2000 prints in the general series. So this is definitely a more valuable part of the series, but then the facade is marred by this damn finger print.
Such a quandry: keep the more valuable prints, marred by this bizarre practice, or return the prints and opt for one of the general series, which are less valuable collector's items.
