Without a provenance it is often difficult to establish a work's authenticity, its true value or who has legal title. Whether buying, selling or simply maintaining an artwork in either a private or a public collection, the days when a blind eye could be turned to the history (or the lack of a known history) of a work have long gone. Proper, thorough and effective provenance research is the minimum required and demanded in today's art world - a world that is increasingly recognizing the need for greater and more effective self-regulation in the face of fakes, forgeries and challenges to ownership or authenticity that are now commonplace. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eProvenance Research Today\u003c\/i\u003e is essential reading for a broad audience, from those studying to become part of the art world or professionals starting a career in provenance research, to collectors or would-be collectors, dealers, galleries, auction houses, police and art lawyers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Arthur Tompkins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848222769\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848222762\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.60w x 0.80d","brand":"Arthur Tompkins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43996435349759,"sku":"9781848222762","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a7fd6e3d-8485-44b5-907f-0d2200a461d3.jpg?v=1683341679","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/provenance-research-today-arthur-tompkins-9781848222762","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
