A reproduction of an image that has been limited by the artist or publisher to a specific number that will be available for sale. Once that number has been sold, the image cannot be reproduced again, and is considered to be Sold Out, or on the Secondary Market. Limited Editions are numbered as follows: print# / edition size. i.e. 105/250
Such prints are done photographically from an original in another medium, such as watercolor or oil. There is really no limit to the amount of prints which can be made since it is entirely a printing process. The artist will generally sign and number the print in pencil at the bottom of the image.

Limited editions are usually hand-signed and hand-numbered by the artist, which indicates the artist approves the quality of the reproduction. This makes them more exclusive and hence more valuable than open editions. A limited edition print may be a high quality reproduction such as a giclée or an artist's print.
A print from a predetermined number of impressions made from a plate, stone, screen, or other method, after which no more impressions are to be taken. It is signed and numbered in pencil by the artist and the plate or screen is then destroyed.

one of a finite number of prints published, typically signed by the artist and numbered. The "number," written in fraction form, indicates the size of the run (the denominator) and the number in the run a particular print is (the numerator). For example, if one has the 5th print from a run of 300, this would be designated by "5/300."
Limited edition prints (as sold here on artgallery.co.uk) are hand-produced prints of original works. The prints are made or commissioned by the artists themselves. The numbers of print in a run can vary, but they are always strictly limited in quantity and in many cases each print is individually signed and numbered by the artist.
