Prints & Multiples

Lyon & Turnbull is delighted to offer modern and contemporary editioned prints and multiples auctions, with three dedicated sales every year presented alongside Contemporary Art in Edinburgh and featuring heavily within our London-based MODERN MADE auction.

An exciting and developing area of the market, Prints & Multiples are popular with new and seasoned collectors alike. The alchemy and collaboration of the printmaking process– across the vision of the artist, the technical support of the print technician and the various printmaking processes that can be utilised and manipulated – from etching, woodcuts and lithography to screenprinting and lino cuts - means there is endless depth and variety to these works.

All sale results shown are inclusive of buyer’s premium.
