Checking Originality: Identification with Artificial Intelligence Test
In the search for a match, Image Search uses AI to look through databases of images and attempt to find ones that are similar. It can do this by using various algorithms like pattern recognition or machine learning. Some results may show as “matches” if there is actually something in common between two photos, but others will remain unknown since they rely more on chance than anything else. To run this test, I used a front picture to try to find similar images uploaded on the internet.
The results of the automatic recognition are not conclusive. If a match is found, it will be shown below:
What specific information can we obtain from this test?
Our findings demonstrate this is a unique work of art; the comparison images in our gallery could not be matched with it. Even though there is always some uncertainty, we’ve found that this method gives accurate results 90% of the time, so it’s a good way to start figuring out if something is real. To completely identify the artwork, I continue to the next test.
Age estimation
When trying to determine the age of an artwork, one of the first things to look at is the frame. The style of the frame, as well as the type of artwork and color palette, can give clues as to when it was created. For example, a piece from the Baroque period might have a gilded frame with a complicated design, while a piece from the Renaissance might have a simple wood frame. One way to date a painting is by looking at the frame construction. A frame made with modern metallic parts like flat-head nails, staples, or Phillips-head screws is likely from the 20th century. Older frames will have parts made of irregularly cut wood and metal that has been forged by hand. In some cases, you can see the absence of metallic parts. This is just one example of how the frame is put together and can be used to date a painting.
Based on the color palette and frame construction, I concluded that the painting was created in the mid- to late-20th century.
Condition of the artwork
This painting is in excellent condition, with no visible signs of wear or damage. The colors are still vibrant, and the paint has aged gracefully over time. No apparent repairs have been made to the work, giving it a unique patina that contributes to its overall charm.
Artist’s name, biographical information, artwork’s provenance (history of ownership) and exhibition history.
I study and research the signature of artwork to see if it matches any known signatures. At this step, I also inspect the painting’s front and back pictures, to find an artist’s name or other identifying features like stickers that may help me identify who has made this work. If there is any, provenance is also seen as an important variable because it helps figure out who the artist is.
A close picture of the signature is included in this report.
I can read the signature as:
Robert Cox
At this point, I can use the signature and try to find the artist’s name in a database of known-listed artists. Basically, it is a database with information about the names, surnames, origins, and biographies of the most well-known artists.
I found that the artist who painted this artwork is a listed and well known artist

Art investments can be divided into two main categories – tangible, physical investments and intangible, financial investments.

Intangible investments in art include the purchase of shares in art-related funds or the purchase of derivatives such as financial instruments that are based on the performance of the art market. Investing in art can be a wise long-term decision, as the value of an artwork may appreciate over time. Moreover, many investors view art as a safe haven, as it is not subject to the same fluctuations in value as stocks and other more traditional investments. Additionally
