How to identify it

The two dealers’ figures differ in both edition and size, which may mean the picture was printed in two versions. We have not confirmed that. One dealer also lists a signed artist’s proof at 8 × 12 inches.21

Les Kouba prints in general

Dealers describe his limited editions as signed and numbered in pencil by the artist.34

Look for the thirteen. Kouba said he made a point of putting thirteen of something into each picture, and dealers point it out: thirteen fish houses in Winter Fishing Memories, thirteen pheasants in the Shelter pictures. His signature includes a small duck drawn in three strokes.567

The same picture often exists in several forms. A dealer lists Darkhouse Spearing as a signed and numbered edition of 3,000 and as an open-edition Legacy print with no number. Legacy prints are reprints in an open edition, and some small open-edition prints are signed.8910
