The collection includes signed and numbered editions, artist’s proofs, printer’s proofs and bon à tirer prints, each created through the original printmaking process.

Once an edition is complete, the plate is cancelled by scratching through its surface, ensuring that no additional impressions from that edition can be produced. This protects the integrity and rarity of each print.

AP, or Artist’s Proof, is an impression reserved for the artist outside the numbered edition. Artist’s proofs are usually identical to the editioned prints, but are marked “AP” to distinguish them.

PP, or Printer’s Proof, is an impression reserved for the printer who collaborated with the artist to produce the edition. These works are typically marked “PP” and often hold special significance because of their connection to the printmaking process.

BAT, or bon à tirer, means “good to pull” in French. It is the final proof approved by the artist and used by the printer as the standard for every impression in the edition. Because there is generally only one BAT, it is a particularly rare record of the collaboration between artist and printer.

Together, these proofs exist outside the numbered edition and offer collectors a more intimate connection to the artist, printer and making of the work.

Works available online can be purchased directly through the Add to Cart button. Each print will be carefully packaged for shipping and accompanied by documentation confirming its authenticity and edition details.

To experience the collection in person, you can also book a private viewing appointment. We’ll guide you through the available works and help you explore the full collection.

Not yet. The website currently features only a small selection of the full collection. Some works are too large or delicate to scan, while others are part of John Greco’s private, previously not-for-sale collection and are being made available for the first time.

We are documenting and releasing new works gradually, so the online collection will continue to grow. To view a broader selection—including pieces not yet listed online—you can book a private appointment.

Each work is priced individually based on the artist’s market, the size and condition of the print, the edition, and whether it is a numbered print, artist’s proof, printer’s proof or bon à tirer.

Because many works come directly from John Greco’s private collection and have rarely—or never—been offered publicly, pricing also reflects their provenance, rarity and relationship to Josephine Press.

Available prices are listed online, and we are happy to provide additional details about any work upon request.

Josephine Press is the working print studio where John Greco collaborates with artists to develop and produce original fine art prints. Christopher John Gallery was founded five years later as a place to exhibit those works, share them with the community and connect them with collectors.

The two have always been closely intertwined: Josephine Press is where much of the work is made, while Christopher John Gallery preserves, presents and places it. The gallery’s collection also includes artist’s proofs, printer’s proofs, bon à tirer prints and works acquired through decades of exchange with the artists who have passed through the studio.
