“David and Brigitte have provided an exemplary service over many years in support of our art investments – we have not only profited from their advice in buying and selling both privately and at auction but we have a beautiful collection to show for it which we enjoy every day. Together with this they have helped us learn so much more about both Australian and international art – allowing our appreciation and knowledge to grow with our passion. Highly recommended!”

“Dear David and Brigitte,

The evaluation arrived in the post today, and we wanted to thank you most sincerely for all of your assistance. We have now insured them which is a great relief. Mum was both surprised and thrilled to know the paintings were of value, and also asked me to thank you both.

It was a delight to read the profiles of the artists and to also see what other similar paintings sold for. We are so pleased we chose your firm to do the valuations for us and once again thank you. Kindest regards”

Thank you so much for coming back to me with the valuation. It definitely does appear to be the preparatory sketch for Sunday Morning… I’m so grateful for the research you’ve done into its origins.
