Intaglio printing is a technique in which an image is incised into a surface and the resulting depressed areas hold the ink, allowing it to be transferred onto paper. Rare intaglio prints can refer to several different aspects:
Limited Edition Prints: Some intaglio prints are produced in limited editions, meaning only a small number of copies are made. These limited editions can become rare over time, especially if they are from well-known artists or if the printing plates are destroyed after the edition is completed.
Early or First Edition Prints: The earliest prints produced from an intaglio plate are often considered more valuable and rare compared to later editions. These early prints may have subtle differences from later impressions and can be highly sought after by collectors.
