  With a huge upsurge in recent years of the value of Irish art sold both at auction and in commercial galleries, it isn't surprising that there has been an equal, if not greater occurrence of Irish art fraud and forgery. It has to be said, not without some criminal successes in the art market.
When a good Roderic O'Conor impressionist oil painting can fetch well over €100,000 at auction today and his most expensive work to date made near a quarter of a million GB pounds, when it's not that difficult to fake, he is a target and almost too much of a good thing for the would be fakers to ignore.

 One 'believed to be' Roderic O'Conor and others, said to be by Aloysius O'Kelly and Walter Osborne were withdrawn from an important auction recently in Dublin, with big question marks being raised over their authenticity. But many a 'not so Irish masterpiece' must surely have slipped through the auctioneers net.

 

 

 

 

Fine Art Authentication

 We are international fine art consultants and fine art investigators with bases in the UK and Europe, specialising in conducting full investigations into the authenticity of works of art created by artists in all categories, regions and historical eras. We scrutinize and verify provenance and have been confidentially serving and advising both private individuals and corporate clients from around the world for over 45 years.r

 Our distinguished clients include; Law firms and law enforcement agencies from all over the globe. Principal, national, regional, municipal and corporate art galleries and collections. Museums, auctioneers, insurers, loss adjusters, art dealers and collectors. Alongside private investors and individuals from all walks of life.

 

 The duration and the direction of any authenticity investigation or an attribution of a work of art will inevitably vary from project to project. But there are clear and very well defined professional formalities, responsibilities and areas of scrutiny that we can formally assist you with, including:

 

  • Authentication: Authentification:   Conducting comprehensive investigations and in depth research into a work of art with a view to establishing a correct, complete and formally recognized certification. One absolutely upheld by the appropriate, legally acknowledged and internationally sanctioned authority, body or expert on that given artist. Directing detailed and complicated inquiries, with multilingual capability, including any international academic research and forensic applications that are required.

 

  •  Attribution: Identifying and confirming the identity of a previously anonymous artist, studio or workshop from which a work of art most likely originated. Including the re-examination and investigation of a previous attribution which may be incorrect, or the scrutiny of an attribution that has been formally questioned or is currently doubted.

 

 

  •  Confirmation:  Undertaking research and investigations into the legitimacy of the provenance, history and prior ownership of a work of art and establishing its accuracy and legitimacy.

 

  •  Scrutiny: Examen minutieux:Identifying fake or faux works of art and forgeries, including any false supportive accompanying documentation and determining works of art which may be studio or later copies, or previously given incorrect attributions.

 

  •  Prosecution: Poursuite: Investigating alleged art fraud and forgery and assisting and advising those who are currently , or may be considering litigating or prosecuting the fact. This includes colleagues who are legal professionals and individual private clients.

 

  •  Attention: Conducting all fine art related due diligence and duty of care inquiries. Including safe prepurchase or sale related audits and assisting clients in consolidating a well balanced future family distribution.

 

 

  •  Appraisal: Évaluation - Valuations and condition reports.

 

 

 

 

 

Step one in the Art Authentication and Attribution process.

The Pre-Authentication Assessment

 

    Before you begin any authenticity, legitimacy, or artist attribution investigation, it is wise to have an impartial preliminary assessment of the viability of the project conducted first. One made to independently and rationally balance any negative issues there may be against the positive. You should treat this study as a safety net.

 We will be happy to professionally undertake this for you, based upon good quality images that you supply and all the known facts regarding its acquisition, the history and provenance of the work of art as is known to you.

You will then have a far better understanding of the prospects and indeed the possible pitfalls that could lie ahead.
