Authentication & Condition
Every sculpture at Artemisia is carefully examined for authenticity, casting quality, condition, and attribution. Bronze works are assessed for casting method, patina authenticity, and founder's marks. Stone sculptures are evaluated for carving quality, condition, and any restoration. We provide comprehensive documentation including condition reports, provenance research, and when appropriate, certificates of authenticity.
Display & Installation
Sculpture requires thoughtful display to be properly appreciated. Our specialists can advise on placement, lighting, pedestals, and installation to ensure your sculpture is presented to maximum effect. For monumental works, we can arrange professional installation and placement consultation.
Investment Value
Fine art sculpture by established artists with documented provenance represents sound investment. Bronze sculptures maintain intrinsic material value while appreciating based on artistic merit and market demand. Works by recognized sculptors with auction records show consistent appreciation, while carefully selected emerging sculptors offer growth potential.
