Welcome to Freemanart
With nearly five decades of international experience investigating the authenticity and attributions of works of art, Freemanart has been the trusted, confidential choice for private Australian individuals and corporate clients and worldwide. We are expert fine art consultants specializing in leading complex international investigations of the authenticity of works of art across all artists, genres, and historical eras. While the scope of every investigation will obviously vary from case to case, we provide clear and well-defined essential professional services to assist you in the following ways:
|

Authentication: (Authentification): We offer an expert, professional preliminary advisory service by conducting balanced and impartial assessments on the viability of undertaking a full investigation into a work of art's authenticity. If an investigation is warranted, we can undertake comprehensive, in-depth, and multilingual research into the legitimacy of the work of art in question. This includes full scrutiny of the piece and any necessary forensic or external applications that are required.
|
|
![]() |
Attributions: We conduct all investigations with the goal of determining and confirming the identity of a previously unsigned work of art by an anonymous artist, studio, or workshop. We also re-examine and investigate any previous attributions that may have been incorrectly applied, scrutinising any attribution that has been formally questioned or is now doubted. < We are proudly responsible for the repatriation of the historical watercolour Erin's Home by Australian itinerant artist Gordon Sebastien Hirst. We are very pleased to say that it is now housed in the Art Gallery of New South Wales, where we assisted with both its discovery and its final placement. |
|

Confirmation: The Freemanart Consultancy conducts all the necessary archival research and analysis required to investigate both the authenticity and accuracy of a work of art's provenance, background history, lineage, and prior ownership. Through this vitally important work, we can fully qualify and confirm its qualification, legitimacy, and accountability when pursuing a work's authenticity and building a watertight and unquestionable case for our clients. |

Scrutiny: Our critical expert analysis focuses on identifying fakes, spurious, faux works of art, and forgeries. This includes the identification of any accompanying false or imagined provenance, forged documentation, and illegitimate Certificates of Authenticity (COAs) that are presented as evidence supporting the work of art in a recent or historical sale. We can also determine if a work of art is a studio or later copy, or if it has been previously awarded an incorrect attribution. |
|
![]() |
Prosecution: We investigate alleged art fraud or forgery and provide assistance and advice to individuals, or legal counsels considering litigation or prosecution. Our investigative work for these cases is conducted for both legal professionals and corporate and private clients on an international scale. |
|
![]() |
Due Diligence: We undertake all fine art-related due diligence and duty of care inquiries, including pre-purchase and fine art sale-related checks and audits. This is particularly relevant and helpful when clients are considering bidding on works online via internet-based auction sales, especially when buying paintings sight-unseen and relying on the integrity of the seller to provide true and correct information. Seeking professional help to navigate what can sometimes be confusing or even misleading descriptors and inferred claims of authenticity or attribution is vital. We also assist clients in addressing and consolidating a well-balanced future family distribution of their fine art assets. |

Appraisals (Évaluation) We provide comprehensive appraisals and valuations for a variety of purposes, including private sale, purchase, or insurance. Our services also include on-site quality and condition assessments and reports. |

The Freemanart Consultancy are proud to serve an ever growing number of distinguished private, corporate, and legal clients throughout Australia and the Australasian region, including those residing in both Australia and New Zealand. We are here to help all Australians with any fine art and authenticity related matters.

The Art Authentication Process: Step One
|
|
If you are seriously considering having a work of art such as a painting authenticated, we strongly advise you to have us conduct a preliminary assessment of its viability first. This is similar as to how a lawyer would assess a legal case, measuring the prospects of success and any impacts there may be for you before presenting it in court. This impartial and honest assessment determines the true status of your work of art and its viability of success, but before the undertaking of a full investigation, saving you time and unecessary expense. The assessment is a comprehensive study that weighs all the positive aspects of the work itself, set against any potential issues or questioins that require an answer. This helps determine whether a full investigation is warranted, practical, or wise to undertake. This professional advisory service is offered to all our clients resultiung in a full written report of all our findings, conclusiions and reccomendations for modest and cost effective set fee.

A preliminary assessment can be initiated very effectively with the following information:
By taking this well-tested route, you' will have a much clearer understanding of the prospects of success, as well as any pitfalls you might face. View this as your safety net before you move on with a full investigation.
