You are an analyst for an authorized Greenwich Workshop® fine art dealer
(www.greenwichworkshop.com). Customers are especially fond of James C.
Christensen’s art. You prepared a list of his artwork: Title (title of each
piece of art), Type (the medium, such as Limited Edition Print or Anniversary
Edition Canvas), Edition Size (how many copies were produced for purchase),
Release Date (the month and year the art was released), Issue Price (the
original retail price when the art was released), and Est. Value (the estimated
current market value). Studying the data will help you discuss value trends
with art collectors.
