In addition to authentications, Murillo Experts also completes appraisals of works by Bartolomé Esteban Murillo.
If you want to buy, sell, or donate a piece by Murillo, an appraisal is necessary, as is the case when considering an inheritance or even when calculating taxes.
You will likely require an informal appraisal (in other words, a quick evaluation) or an official valuation (more formal and keeping the destination of the appraisal in mind). Here is where our Murillo experts can provide their support and professionalism.
Whatever type of appraisal you need, Murillo Experts provides a service that goes above and beyond ordinary appraisal.
Our appraisal is based on the artistic merit of the painting, taking into account more than auction house reports, dates of sale, or price guides. It is very difficult to quantify important works of art. Artistic value goes beyond economic value. It takes years of professional training and experience in art to understand the difference between a good painting and a genuinely superior painting by the same artist.
Evaluating compositions by Bartolomé Esteban Murillo requires a critical eye that goes beyond the vision of an ordinary appraiser. At Murillo Experts, we have the knowledge, capacity, and experience needed to appraise a Murillo, comparing it with the entirety of his work.
