Open Edition
An open edition refers to an edition of prints or artworks with no set limit on the number of copies that will be produced.
This makes the artwork more accessible to a wider audience but usually at the cost of individual value. Unlike limited editions, open editions may be reprinted indefinitely, depending on demand. Open editions are common for artworks that are mass-produced or for artists who want to make their work more widely available.
