I have an artist friend that lives in the apartment above me, and print making is an art in itself to make a reproduction that is acceptable to the artist. He is extremely picky about subtle variations of color and its proper reproduction, as well as getting the lighting right to properly show the texture in his paintings for images to show prospective galleries and buyers. There is no way to 100% accurately reproduce the subtleties in a painting, even by the best print makers. But as long as they are not bootleg prints, you can be sure that the reproduction is as good as possible, and are justified to be proud to show your original print in any method you desire. God knows I am proud of my bootleg star wars movie poster print, even though it does not hold the value it would if it were an original.
