Overview of
services

Gauguin Experts can provide certificates of authenticity as well as appraisals for numerous purposes including insurance, estate planning, sales, taxes and personal reference.

In your search for authentication, most services do not offer anything beyond simply looking at your Gauguin artwork to determine authenticity and often have very little, if any, experience researching and reconstructing provenance.  Gauguin Experts, however, employs a team of researchers fluent in German that have access to the top research institutions in Europe and the United States, including renowned German and Austrian art museum, the Neue Galerie in New York City. In addition to conducting extensive research at international libraries and museums, Gauguin Experts employs a team of researchers trained and experienced in the use of:

  • Infrared photography
  • Multispectral imaging
  • Ultraviolet photography
  • X-ray examination
  • DNA testing
  • Pigment analysis
  • Dendochronology
  • Forensic methods (fingerprint analysis, handwriting analysis,
    document examination, linguistics, dialectology, signature examination)
