A new layer of evidence in art authentication

A work of art is not just an investment. It carries meaning. Someone owns it, lives with it, passes it on. Its historical and financial value, though, depends entirely on whether it is what it claims to be.

AI authenticity analyses at scale

Until now, authentication rested on three layers of evidence: connoisseurship, forensics, provenance. Art Recognition extends the framework to a fourth pillar. AI-driven visual analysis, drawn from the same body of evidence the field already uses.

In the Spotlight

“As a connoisseur of the oeuvre of Paul Cezanne, Vincent Van Gogh, and Oskar Kokoschka, I had the chance to work in close cooperation with Art Recognition on a series of artworks, many of which disputed authenticity. I would like to express my appreciation and respect for this innovative idea, as well as the impressive technical implementation and professional commitment of the whole team.”

Art Expert and Dealer

“I am very much in favour and do support the technology developed at Art Recognition, which expands the means available to us to investigate the autograph status of works of art. Lately it has become increasingly difficult to sort out the number of fraudulent works of art that are appearing on the market, and the Art Recognition AI System provides us with a great tool to deal with this very challenging situation.”

Bershad Professor of Art History, and Director of the Hunter College Art Galleries

“We have used the AI Technology developed at Art Recognition on a number of occasions on artworks such as Monet. The process is fast, the prices are reasonable, and there is no hassle. This is the way of the future, and we are strong supporters of the company, the AI, and the team. We cannot recommend them highly enough.”

Ty Murphy

Director of acquisitions at the International Art Resort and Museum, and Committee member of the Springfield Museum.

“Since its launch, ARTE Generali has thrived bringing innovative services to its clientele of collectors. Helping the authentification of art pieces is important in securing the insurance value of a collection. The approach proposed by Art Recognition, using AI in a very simple way for the clients is definitely helpful in starting an identification/authentification process and we are happy to propose it to our clients via our Art Concierge Platform.”

Jean Gazançon

CEO of Arte Generali

“Expert appraisals have so far been most widely accepted for the assessment of art authenticity, but sometimes experts are unconsciously biased, and erroneous judgments in this field often end up in litigation. The increasing sophistication of AI technology promises to offer a valuable complement here. That’s why the Karel Appel Foundation, being in the process of publishing a catalogue raisonné of paintings and object paintings by Karel Appel, is very pleased about its collaboration with Art Recognition AG.”
