The most interesting part of my work is the appraisal of paintings. During that part of the process, there are all kinds of factors that play a role in the auction value of a work, such as the artist, representation, dimensions, provenance, period in the artist's oeuvre, condition, etc. These are not all boxes that need to be ticked for a work, in part to assess in a targeted manner, you must also let your feelings speak. Why is one work of the artist worth 3,000-4,000 euros and the other at least 10,000 euros? This all depends on the quality of the artwork and the interest from the clientele. Knowledge about the market is therefore related to knowledge of the oeuvre of the artist in question.
