How do I know if my old painting is worth money?
1 Answer

There are two main ways to know if your old painting is worth money. First, you can conduct online research using trusted resources to determine how much similar paintings by the artist have sold for in the past. If you're unsure who the artist is, try the app Smartify, which provides identifications using artists' signatures. A second option is to have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer evaluate your piece. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of paintings.
