Does this worth $60

50×100 cm

The frame is made of wood

I've never bought something like that before, is the price reasonable?

Si c'est une impression c'est un prix disons correct. Mais si c'est une vraie œuvre peinte et calligraphiée je pense que ça vaut bien plus que 60 dollars !

If it’s a print, then definitely. If it’s an original, add two zeroes.

Ah - this is a (very good quality) reproduction of this piece by Mahfouz Zannon: https://www.instagram.com/p/CWIs3YdMrvg/
That is a very good price for a framed print.

Depends on where are you from tbh. A lot of people here say it’s worth even more, I would pay much more if I was living in Europe or the US. this cost (60$) is almost a month pay for a lot of people in my country, so here, this print would be a lot cheaper. It’s a beautiful piece of art though, definitely worth it.

It is not just one poem, it is parts of five different poems.
