Investors are increasingly looking to the art market, as an alternative investment source for tangible assets. The condition, artist and size of a painting will all affect an art valuation. The subject matter is also vital in art valuation and means a painting’s value may vary with the fashion. It is important to consider this when deciding whether to sell or even when buying a painting.

Benefits of Valuation include:

• Accurate insurance records
• Asset management
• Reselling to make a profit
• Create a better understanding of artwork
