    About this ebook

    Art Collecting: A Beginners Guide

    Art collection is a very stimulating and inspiring hobby for all. It isn't just for the rich and famous, but even regular everyday people too. There are various forms of art that you can choose from, especially since art's definition can greatly vary from one person to another. However, it doesn't really matter whatever its form is, you’re the one to make the call on which is attractive and how much are you willing to spend for such piece.

    Buying and collecting art intelligently can be done by anyone. That's right, anyone. You do not need to have experience in collecting art, previous knowledge about the art business, or even a degree in art history. The truth is, all you’ll need is love for and appreciation of fine art; plus a yearning to collect; lastly, willingness to learn a some simple techniques that would help you evaluate any kind of art work coming from any period of history, whomever the artist is and whatever his or her nationality is.

      That, Which Cannot Be Mentioned

      Dec 15, 2023

      As most people see it, a painting is either a print or an original. We see and feel the brushmarks and exclaim, ‘yep, it's an original!’. Several years ago, a gallery in Australia was selling hand-painted copies of Vincent van Gogh's work. Even thoug
