Any print sales are subject to VAT at 20%. The remaining monies are split 50:50 between gallery/photographer. For example, a print sold at £120 attracts VAT of £20. The remaining £100 is split 50:50, with £50 due to the photographer.

The gallery undertakes to print an Artist Proof of each print selected for the exhibition (see C:2 above).
Any sales will be printed to order, with a maximum edition of 10 per image. If demand is greater, the gallery will contact the photographer to agree any further arrangements.
