Do any galleries sell glicee prints by Georgia O Keefe?
If so, I would like a comprehensive list with artwork titles.
Thanks

Dr. C,

There's a service I came across a while back that I've always been
curious about.  It's not glicee, per se, but rather hand-painted oil
reproductions that look rather impressive.

Here's their Georgia O'Keefe page:

Let me know what you think.

Thanks. This looks cool.  It is not exactly what I was looking for,
but cool, none-the-less.  If you can get me the other info on the
glicee, lets make the question worth 60.00, including this neat lead.
OK?

The answer is probably no. Most Georgia O'Keeffe reproductions are
lithographs. And anyway, why would you want such a thing? The
fancy-sounding term "giclee" started to be used in the mid-80's by
dealers who wanted to sell inkjet prints to collectors who couldn't
afford better quality prints. Today the term is outdated and
meaningless, since most people have "giclee" printers in their homes
called "inkjet printers."

So my advice is, if you want to buy something as an investment, you
need to really educate yourself, since there are a lot of sharks out
there, but if you just want something to enjoy, go buy a poster!

Dear Danskins,
You do not know what my purpose is.  I don't need or appreciate your
ancillary opinion.
If you can simply answer a question, fine, otherwise don't bore me
with your dribble.
Dr. C
