Pricing Your Art

 

 Here is why it is so important to embrace this way of selling your art work as a professional, although look and compare dealers v.s. aution houses before making a decision.

This high class article by the Calwell Gallery provides some things to keep in mind when you’re looking at a price.

 

  • To receive a written guarantee of authenticity and conveyance of clear title.
  • To make a purchase from a knowledgeable and reputable dealer.
  • To purchase items which are in original condition, or which have received proper conservation if such treatment is necessary.
  • A history of the work (provenance) from the time of its creation to the present date, including all ownership, exhibition, and publication records.
  • The willingness of the dealer to repurchase or accept in trade the same work at some later date. This is a sign of the dealer’s belief in the piece, and an avenue for collectors to upgrade their collections in future.
  • The ability of the dealer to substantiate, through research and market information, the value of the piece at the price which is being asked.
