I. Appraisals
The curatorial staff of the Cleveland Museum of Art can
not provide appraisals of works of art for insurance or sales purposes.
Local art dealers and appraisers or local and international auction houses
should be consulted for monetary appraisals. Please consult the yellow
pages under "Art Galleries, Dealers and Consultants," "Appraisers"
and "Auctioneers" for a more complete list of local art dealers
and galleries, auction houses and appraisers. The inclusion of art dealers,
auction houses and galleries, etc. on this list is not an endorsement
by the Cleveland Museum of Art but a referral to appropriate resources.
