Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist.

For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience.

It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.
