Our long standing international experience conducting art authentication and attribution investigations into fine art, includes all genres and types, all artists and regions and time periods, from the Medieval times up to the present day.

 For over 45 years, we have proudly helped and advised both private and corporate clients from Michigan and across the USA.

We scrutinize and review individual works of art and complete collections for clients, in order to identify any legitimacy or authenticity conflicts there may be.

 Our principal functions operating as an independent international fine art consultancy, fall neatly into well defined professional responsibilities, actions and formalities that we are happy to assist and advise you with.

Authentication: Conducting investigations with a view to establishing a full and internationally accepted, well proven and correctly underpinned certification of a work of art. Including those with a specific signatorial claim, those with an earlier expert qualification of legitimacy, or those that currently have none. Generally requiring international academic, archival research and forensic applications.

Attribution: Identifying and confirming the anonymous artist, studio or workshop from which a work of art may have first originated. One which may not have been previously known or formerly identified.

Confirmation: Conducting the archival research required in investigating and confirming the provenance, lineage and prior history of ownership of a work of art.

Revision: Re-examining & investigating an erstwhile previously ascribed historical artist's attribution which is incorrect. One otherwise doubted, or has been formally challenged.

Scrutiny: Identifying deliberate fakes and forgeries and determining those which may be studio or later student copies, or previously misrepresented or wrongful attributions.

CORRECT CERTIFICATION of AUTHENTICITY

CERTIFICACIÓN DE AUTENTICIDAD DE ART

  The authenticity of a work of art eventually has to be addressed and judged only by those individuals or bodies, legally entitled, empowered and fully recognized internationally to do so. Only they are regarded as the absolute authority.

No other form of approval or certification, from any other source is accepted internationally with credibility, as being either absolute or reliable.  It is at best only an opinion and can and will inevitably be challenged. Be very cautious if you are told differently.

***

 Our clear intent is to investigate, pursue and establish a flawless case for clients. One that can lead us to an ultimate and accurate confirmation of authenticity, or an artist attribution that is both internationally recognized and unanimously accepted. 

There is no half measure and you would not expect less.

We are proud to serve clients from both the Private and Corporate sector in Michigan and throughout the United States.

International Law firms, Government Departments, Principal, National, Regional, Municipal and Corporate Art Galleries and Collections. Alongside; Museums, Auctioneers, Law Enforcement Agencies, Insurers, Art Dealers and Collectors, as well as private investors & individuals from all walks of life.   Those seeking the truth and requiring the security and clarity that defines the true authenticity and legitimacy of a work of art, offering our vast experience and the sustained excellence of investigative quality.

The Art Authentication Process

Step one.

  Before entering into a full investigation of the legitimacy, authenticity or an attribution of a work of art, be it academic, forensic, or as with most cases, both forms of scrutiny, it is essential to know if the project is viable enough at the start.

We therefore prefer to conduct a preliminary professional pre-authentication assessment for clients first. A well reasoned, independent study based upon your images and all the known details of its acquisition and history.

In our experience, this is a vitally important study and one that allows for a balanced and rational measure of the risks, facts and requirements that may lie ahead.  It is both a logical and cost effective professional assessment and advisory service for which there is naturally a modest set fee.
