Certificate of authenticity of the work
Certificate of Authenticity for Artwork
Artwork Authenticity System
The concept of artwork authenticity has always been a key factor in determining the value and prestige of art. In a market saturated with forgeries, registering authenticity and issuing a valid certificate is one of the most effective ways to combat art fraud. This provides collectors with peace of mind, allowing them to make acquisition decisions with greater confidence. Accordingly, the Institute for the Development of Culture and Art has facilitated the process of identifying, verifying, and documenting the unique characteristics of an artwork and attributing it to its original creator through the "Artwork Authenticity Registration" process, culminating in the issuance of a Certificate of Authenticity.
- A valid Certificate of Authenticity increases the value and prestige of an artwork in both domestic and international art markets.
