Art Provenance Research & Due Diligence
PROPER PROVENANCE offers discrete art provenance research and due diligence to private collectors, corporate clients, wealth managers, family offices, art advisories, galleries, and museums.
Unearthing the verifiable history of your artworks reduces potential risks when buying, selling, loaning, or insuring your pieces. It also has the power to enhance investment value. Provenance research provides the tool, not only to historically contextualize art, but also to shed light on attribution and legal title within the international art market.
Through each in-depth investigation, we will mitigate the risk of future loss associated with art objects that have been falsified (i.e. documentation, provenance, or the work itself), stolen, or looted.
We will exhaust every available resource to chart the full history of your piece. If further information is required, we will consult experts including connoisseurs, auction house specialists, and conservators. Our findings will then be compiled into a report. This process ensures that your piece is rightfully owned and ready for future market transactions.
Each Provenance Report Includes The Following:
Extensive ownership, literature, and exhibition histories
Primary documents relating to the history of the artwork
Art market research and analysis
A final recommendation
