However, you will be able to sell the image many times if it is either an open edition or a limited edition. Light & Land would provide purchase forms and take the details of the buyer. If someone would like to buy the framed image, we will arrange for him or her to collect it at the end of the exhibition. If the buyer is unable to collect, it is the exhibitor’s responsibility to collect the work and arrange shipping subsequently.
