How can you tell if a Peter Max is real?
1 Answer

To tell if a Peter Max is real, conduct research using trusted online resources. For paintings, you can compare the artist's signature on your piece to images of authentic paintings. Signature comparisons can also be useful when authenticating prints, as can comparing the image size and numbering to information shared in reputable catalogues. Because there are many convincing counterfeits of the artist's work, you may wish to have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer assist you with the authentication process. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Peter Max art.
