How do I find an artist’s signature?
1 Answer
To find an artist's signature, look at the top and bottom corners of a piece. The signature may appear close to the frame or a couple of inches from it. If you need assistance identifying the artist based on the signature, try the Smartify app. Using your smartphone or tablet camera, you can scan the image to find out if it matches one of the thousands of entries in the application's database. Should you need help with the identification process, a knowledgeable art dealer or appraiser can be of assistance. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of fine art.
