We can not purchase an item if we give the appraisal. It is a conflict of interest and highly improper. We are also unable to appraise any work of art over the internet because there are too many factors that must be taken into consideration and cannot be seen through the web. In addition, due to the enormous amount of computer viruses, we have a strict policy and do not open any emails with attachments.
We suggest you check around first before selling. This means that you should check all websites and auction records that have any art by this artist in order to obtain the best price. Please read our Guide to Evaluating Works of Art and Determining Values for some helpful hints.
Once you have decided on a price for your work of art, contact a reputable gallery or auction house.
We hope our Guide to Evaluating Works of Art and Determining Values will be of some help.
Unfortunately, due to the enormous amount of requests, we will no longer be able to provide extra material for research projects or works of art that you own.
It is not possible for us to give an appraisal on any work of art without actually inspecting the piece first. Sending an image is not helpful, since there are so many clever reproductions. This makes it a requirement to inspect the work personally. In addition, due to the enormous amount of computer viruses, we have a strict policy and do not open any emails with attachments. You may also do a Site Search.
If you would like an official appraisal or want to know how much your work of art is worth or what it is, we recommend that you contact a certified art appraiser or reputable galleries that provide these services. Don't forget to view the Guide to Evaluating Works of art. It is a useful tool that will help you understand the rules to evaluating a work of art. Helpful Hints contains an explanation of the different graphic art mediums and tips for the novice.
Prints generally follow the same monetary rules as paintings and sculptures. The value of the piece is determined by the importance of the artist, the condition, the state of the work, its rarity and whether or not it represents a good example the artist's work.
The following factors are important to consider when evaluating art:
| 1.- Artist |
| 2.- Condition |
| 3.- Size |
| 4.- Subject Matter: for which type of image is the artist most highly regarded? |
| 5.- Medium: i.e. etching, oil painting, watercolour, drawing, etc. Helpful Hints contains an explanation of the different graphic art mediums and tips for the novice |
| 6.- Presentation - Is the piece framed or matted properly in archival materials? |
| 7.- Other Factors - If it is a graphic work of art: state, edition, impression, proof, etc. are important |
| 8.- Price Records - A period of at least ten years provides a more accurate value. |
