If for whatever reason you cannot own the original, a reproduction is a good choice. “Reproduction” implies matching the original as closely as can reasonably be done.* My printers use “Giclée” technology to print in high resolution directly on real canvas, with a no-fade life well over a century. At a glance, with a coat of varnish, these reproductions can be mistaken for an original. To prevent misunderstanding, I have the data printed along with the image so it shows on the back as shown here.
With “Giclée” there is no limit to the number of perfect prints. So the only value in a numbered, hand-signed “limited edition” is based on artificial scarcity. I don’t print in “editions” or a lot of sizes and only keep a few reproductions in stock. 
* If the original is on stretched canvas, so is a reproduction. To me, a paper print is only a photo of the original.
