What August Natterer Prints Actually Cost
A straight answer on pricing, with the complication stated first. Auvrique does not currently carry Natterer editions, so this is a benchmark for what his work costs elsewhere and what to expect if it ever appears here.
Auvrique does not currently offer August Natterer prints, so there is no price range to quote on this site. Elsewhere, reproduction prints of his work typically run from about $25 for small unframed paper prints to $200 or more for large framed or canvas editions, depending on size and finish.
The Honest Answer First
There is no August Natterer price range on Auvrique because the catalogue does not include him. That is the whole answer to the literal question, and it is better to state it plainly than to bury it under a generic price table. Anyone searching for Natterer reproduction pricing is usually comparing sellers, so the useful move is to give the market benchmark instead.
That benchmark is fairly consistent across print-on-demand sellers. Small paper prints, roughly A4 or under, tend to sit between $20 and $40. Medium canvas or framed pieces land between $80 and $150. Large framed editions, above 60 centimetres on the long edge, commonly reach $150 to $250. Those figures describe the reproduction market generally, not any one seller's list.
What Pushes the Price Up
Size is the biggest variable, and it is not linear. A print twice the area costs more than twice as much once framing enters the picture, because frame moulding and glazing are priced by the metre. A 30x40 canvas might cost $60 while the same image at 70x100 approaches $200.
Finish is the second variable. Canvas usually runs cheaper than a framed paper print at the same size, since a frame adds materials and labour. Paper weight, matte versus glossy, and whether glazing is included all shift the final number by 20 to 40 percent. Natterer's imagery, much of it dense with fine linework, tends to reward matte finishes and generous margins, which is worth factoring into what you are willing to pay.
How to Compare Sellers
A price comparison for Natterer prints only means something if the products are comparable. Check three things before judging a number. The printed dimensions, not the paper size. Whether the frame is included or sold separately. And the resolution of the source file, because Natterer's original drawings survive in a limited number of photographic records and some sellers work from better scans than others.
A cheap print from a poor scan is expensive at any price. Look for sellers who state their source material and their print resolution, and be cautious of any listing that implies an original drawing is for sale. Natterer's original works sit in institutional collections and are not on the open market in any meaningful way. Reproductions are the only realistic route, which makes source quality the thing worth paying for.
Before you commit
- Confirm the printed image size, not the paper or canvas blank size
- Check whether a frame, mount and glazing are included in the listed price
- Look for a stated print resolution or source scan quality
- Compare shipping separately, since large framed pieces carry real freight costs
With an artist whose originals are held institutionally, the reproduction is not a compromise. It is the market.
| Format | Typical size | Typical price |
|---|---|---|
| Unframed paper print | Up to A3 | $20 to $40 |
| Canvas print | 40 to 70 cm | $60 to $130 |
| Framed print | 50 to 80 cm | $120 to $250 |

Related questions
Why does one seller charge twice as much for the same Natterer image?
Usually framing, print size or paper specification. A framed print includes moulding, mount board and glazing, which can double the cost of the same image on plain paper. Always compare like with like before concluding a seller is overpriced.
Are original August Natterer drawings ever sold at auction?
Originals very rarely surface, and his principal holdings are in institutional collections. This page concerns reproductions, which are a separate market entirely. Anyone researching original sales should consult auction records directly rather than print retailers.
Is a canvas or framed print better value for Natterer's work?
Canvas is usually cheaper at the same size and suits his graphic, linear drawings well. Framed prints cost more but protect the surface and suit the drawing-like character of the work. Value depends on if you are paying for presentation or image.
