On the general discussion thread I posted details of a print of a watercolour of a lost portrait of Nelson.
I know that many people on this forum are knowledgeable about buying art, but I thought it might be helpful to those who are new to collecting prints to have a few guidelines to help them avoid some of the pitfalls that can trap the unwary new collector. I prepared the attached note for other purposes but I hope it will be useful to some viewers here.
I am not an expert but I have collected pictures and prints for many years and learned from my mistakes along the way. All the information has been checked by a forum member who is an art historian so I think it is pretty reliable.
Thanks to Tony for technical expertise in posting the pdf.
