How the valuation process works
1. Tell us about the artwork. Provide photographs, the artist’s name, dimensions, available provenance and the reason for the valuation.
2. Agree on the scope. Emma will review the information and discuss the report required, inspection arrangements, fees and timing.
3. Research and reporting. The valuation considers the artwork, its documentation and relevant market evidence, with a written report prepared for the agreed purpose.
