Expertise

I can answer questions about Salvador Dali. While I cannot do FREE APPRAISALS, I might be able to help you sell your works. I can also help with Chagall, Miro, Picasso and other 20th Century Masters.

Questions about a type of art or medium can be answered with one response in most cases. Technical issues are easier to deal with than specifics about an artist. If you need help finding values or history on an artist, it will probably involve research that can sometimes take hours to complete. If you have more than one image to send, I will give you an alternate email address as this system cannot handle multiple images.

Values of those prints range based on when they were printed and other factors. I have seen old antique prints, and then copies of those same prints that were printed years later as decorative posters

There are many copies and unauthorized Picasso prints out there. I have seen many fakes in the past few years and the name Vollard is attached to many. I cannot make comments about prints I have not seen
