How does Millet Experts authenticate the Millet in my collection?
Millet Experts applies scientific and forensic methods to authenticate your Millet artworks by employing:
- x-rays: analyzing the many layers of the painting to compare with other pieces by the same artist to determine consistency in brushstrokes, layers, etc.
- pigment analysis: testing the pigments in the paint to determine period consistency
- infrared, uv and multispectral photography
- raking light photography: applying a parallel light to document the topographical nuances of the painting
- age of material: confirm the consistency with other artworks produced in the same time period
