An original piece of a famous artist's work of art is expensive. A lithograph print is more affordable, but it still carries a tag of exclusivity, quality and value, as there will almost definitely not be many copies. It is not a reproduction and higher prices for the original lithograph are potentially required.
The earliest known form of printing applied to paper was woodblock printing, which appeared prior to 220 AD in China. Later developments in printing technology include the movable type invented by Bi Sheng around 1040 AD and the printing press invented by Johannes Gutenberg in the 15th century.
Lithography was primarily a graphic art form throughout the nineteenth century and, as such, still holds a high artistic reputation. Lithographs are artists' original artworks and are typically signed, while there is no signature for offset lithographic printing and reproductions.
