Bring us a piece. We'll tell you what you have.
A research file is a conversation that begins with a single image. The first response comes within two to three business days, from a named gallery contact, with a clear sense of which tier the work calls for and what comes next.
Three tiers, by what the work asks for.
The classification follows the question. Each file is priced for the work itself.
For living artists with a public market record. Image-anchored, sourced comparables, indicated market range. Inside the week.
For works with an established market. Multi-angle registry, condition assessment, signed file with cryptographic anchor. Inside two weeks.
Archival research, period-specific consultation, contested or partial attribution. Timing scoped at intake.
Tell us about the piece.
As much as you know is fine. Where the trail goes thin, that's exactly where the research begins. A single image is enough to start.
A research file is a working file. It follows the work as long as the work exists.
