Paintings, original's done on canvas (real canvas) with good paints can be rolled (frame dismantled). Make sure the artist shows you that it is the good stuff (get him to run a knife through the back - seriously if it is the real thing the knife will not cut through), then you know it want crack when unrolled back home.

Prices for real stuff - direct from the artist are around.

30cm x 60 cm - up to 200,000rp
40 x 60cm - up to 300,000rp
60 x 60 cm up to 400,000rp
100 x 100 - up to 500,000rp
120 * 120 - up to 700,000rp

So cheap for original art.

Remember, if it's real art and you meet the painter you may want to pay more if he spends time telling you about his creation, that is up to you.

Don't know about prints.
