Description

Provenance Research Today: Principles, Practice, Problems by Arthur Tompkins explores key aspects of provenance research for the international art market. Co-published with the International Foundation for Art Research (IFAR), this publication delves into challenges and best practice, as well as considerations specific to Nazi looted art and the trade in illicit antiquities. Provenance research is a crucial component of any art-market transaction, essential for establishing a work's authenticity, value, and legal title. In today's art world, thorough and effective provenance research is demanded, particularly in light of increasing challenges from fakes, forgeries, and disputes over ownership or authenticity. This publication is suitable for a broad audience, including those studying to enter the art world, professionals starting a career in provenance research, collectors, dealers, galleries, auction houses, police, and art lawyers.
