Covering key aspects of provenance research for the international
art market, this accessible publication, co-published with the
International Foundation for Art Research (IFAR), explores a range
of themes including challenges and best practice to considerations
specific to Nazi looted art and the trade in illicit antiquities.
Provenance research is a crucial component of any art-market
transaction. Without a provenance it is often difficult to
establish a work's authenticity, its true value or who has legal
title. Whether buying, selling or simply maintaining an artwork in
either a private or a public collection, the days when a blind eye
could be turned to the history (or the lack of a known history) of
a work have long gone. Proper, thorough and effective provenance
research is the minimum required and demanded in today's art world
- a world that is increasingly recognising the need for greater and
more effective self-regulation in the face of fakes, forgeries and
challenges to ownership or authenticity that are now commonplace.
Provenance Research Today is essential reading for a broad
audience, from those studying to become part of the art world or
professionals starting a career in provenance research, to
collectors or would-be collectors, dealers, galleries, auction
houses, police and art lawyers.
