Originals in this selection, Graphic, illustrative and typographic, Pen and Ink, under 500 euro.

Storytelling on the wall
These sheets reward reading, so they hang well at eye level, in a hallway, a study or beside the kitchen door. Small formats arrange neatly in rows. Pay attention to paper type and an acid-free mat, so white stays white. Framed under glass, the finest lines stay clear of fingerprints.
Paper for lettering and grids
Straight letters and grids need smooth, dimensionally stable paper so lines do not bleed. Ask about the paper type and whether pencil underdrawing still shows. Framing with space to the glass protects the thinnest strokes.
