You may have a painting at home — old, intriguing, or inherited — but know little about its true origin or value. Whether it was discovered in an attic, purchased on a whim, or passed down through generations, it might be far more valuable than you imagine.
In 2025, the global art market is breaking records. René Magritte’s The Empire of Light recently sold for $121.1 million, while lesser-known works by emerging and established artists are attracting strong international interest. Even modest-looking pieces have surprised owners with significant valuations.
Many of our clients are surprised to learn that their family heirlooms or forgotten attic finds are part of a growing, high-demand market.
