An Artwork's Value             Print Page
  
 
 

10. I have a painting/sculpture/print in my attic/I bought a work of art at a sale, etc., and I want to know what it's worth.

 

We in the library are not in a position to determine the value of a painting/sculpture/drawing, etc., but have access to various sales indexes: see the Marquand website at the bottom of the page. Alternatively, try the International Guide of Art Experts, Specialists and Catalogues Raisonnés, 2 vols., Ref. N50.K53 1993, or consult Art Market Research: A Guide to Methods and Sources, by Tom McNulty, Ref N5200.M39 2006.  Another suggestion would be to contact an appraiser via an organization such as the American Society of Appraisers or the International Society of Appraisers.
