FORENSIC FINE ART ANALYSIS |
Freemanart are an international fine art consultancy specializing in art authentication investigations and the various academic and forensic procedures that are required in its undertaking. We direct and conduct scientific investigations, including the analysis and testing of fine art medium and supports, involving a wide variety of practical forensic applications. This supports our investigations into the work of arts authenticity and in securing the accurate attribution of oil paintings, watercolours, prints, drawings and sculptures, originating from all genres, eras, geographical regions. We are called upon to conduct forensic inspections, diagnostics, pigment and fibre sampling and analysis for date range identification. This includes Carbon 14 dating, alongside forensic imaging on site internationally throughout the world. Working from Forensic Laboratories in the UK, Europe and North America, we employ fine scholars, forensic scientists and academics, all of whom are leading exponents in their respective fields. |

Art Authentication: Before you begin
* Before entering into a full investigation of the legitimacy of a work of art, be it academic, forensic or as with most cases, both, it is essential to know if the project is at all viable. Much as you would need to know before you were considering taking a legal case to court. So we prefer to make a preliminary and vital professional pre authentication assessment for clients first. This is based upon the images you supply, the details and the items history as is known to you. This is a logical & cost effective professional assessment and advisory for which there is a modest set fee. Please see our FAQ's which explains the process in detail.
