Before you invest hundreds of dollars in an authentication investigation, consider our Preliminary Opinion service. For a nominal fee, it is the most economical approach to get an initial opinion about the authenticity of your artwork.

    Within 48 hours of your order, you can learn the main reason(s) we think you should continue or stop researching the authenticity of your artwork.

    Send us digital photos of your artwork, along with dimensions and any background information you have, and we will email you our opinion on whether you should pursue additional research on the authenticity of your work of art.
