How can I identify a painting online?
1 Answer
To identify a painting online, you can first try to use the app Smartify. Once you've downloaded the app, snap a photo of the artist's signature. The app will then search through its database and determine the artist. From there, you can use trusted online resources to learn more about the artist, your painting's name and facts about its history. Alternatively, you can photograph the painting and conduct a reverse image search of the whole image or the artist's signature to begin your research. For assistance with identification, seek the help of a certified appraiser or experienced art dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a wide variety of paintings.
