Pricing / Quotes - Additional Info
Full Authenticity Examinations: our prices depend on a number of factors:
- Size of artwork
- Medium of artwork
Also, if a Norval Morrisseau work turns out to be a fake, and you've paid for a Full Authenticity Examination, you may choose to turn it over to our fraud archive, in which case you will receive a significant discount on our services. Your work will then be permanently marked as fraudulent and entered into a database used for the future detection of fakes.
Expert Testimony: Price will depend on the time involved, case complexity, travel cost, other disbursements, etc.
