Appraisal Estimates Clarification

This entry is to clarify the appraisals made for the prints:

LANGLOIS BRIDGE AT
ARLES PRINT

A REGULAR PRINT BY PICASSO

CLAUDE MONET (AFTER) –
SOLEIL LEVANT OFFSET LITHOGRAPH

CAMPBELL’S SOUP CANS
PAINTING BY ANDY WARHOL PRINT

with the following information:

  1. Each appraisal estimate is done specifically with the information provided by our customers. We do not appraise things automatically. It is true that we use information technology tools, including computer vision and artificial intelligence algorithms. However, each appraisal value is found manually by the appraiser.
  2. About my expertise, I have more than 10 years of experience as an appraiser. You can see a full list of ART appraisals made here, with more than 500+ appraisals made only on this website:

https://www.appraisily.com/category/art-appraisal/

I don’t need to prove my credentials, you can see the website has THE SINGLE BEST score on Trustpilot given by our customers.

3. I appraise Art piece and Antiques, there is no contradiction nor it invalidates my expertise on each field. In fact, it is quite common to find appraisers in between Art and Antiques.

4. If another person thinks the appraisal is incorrect, you are welcome to hire another appraiser and provide a second appraisal estimate. This is the standard procedure.

5. My name is Andrés Gómez, there are multiple errors in my name “Andrey” or “Andre”. I do not hide under an email instead, I use email, chat, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Google Bussines Profiles, TrustPilot, Twitter and Linkedin to communicate with my customers. My phone number is shown to my customers (I don’t list it in the website to avoid SPAM).

6. In the case of this report, I was hired to provide a valuation and describe what I was showed using my expertise. I concluded these are ” signed in plate prints”, often called reproductions, copies or posters. The exact value for each print is found on each report.

7. I am NOT a lawyer, provide any legal service or consultation. I offer a service to appraise and describe what I am showed.

8. To demonstrate that the valuation is correct, I have included, for one report, a set of different past auction sales estimates. I used a free and open database, so anyone can check the final hammer price for free. I have choosen the following report to prove the appraisal value:

9. You can also find articles on the Internet clearly explaining why a signed in plate print is, in fact, a reproduction:

“Now for some cautions. Just because a seller advertises a print as “plate signed” does not mean that it is. This misrepresentation can frequently be found in ads on eBay, for example. Reproductions on paper done on a printing press of famous oil paintings or original etchings/lithographs are often sold as “plate signed” by dishonest or sincerely mistaken parties. If an entire work is a printed reproduction of an original oil painting, the signature should not be called “plate signed”. (Also, the work should not be called “by” the artist, but rather “after” the artist.)”
