- Signed on Verso or Recto: Verso means on the backside; Recto (believe it or not) means on the front side.
- Original Art is considered to be a first-time work of art by an artist, rather than a reproduction of the artwork. An original work of art may be a painting, a sculpture, or a creation using a variety of other kinds of materials. Original Art is extremely more valuable than reproductions of the artwork.
