Collection management Our collection management services include the inventory and documentation of artworks which is a vital step in maintaining and preserving a collection. A comprehensive inventory, along with detailed information regarding the history of the artwork, is an invaluable asset in the event of damage or theft, and is necessary if the work is sold or donated in the future. It is also essential for insurance, financing, exhibition and publication purposes. Private Dealing We assure the strictest level of confidentiality throughout the entire transactional process. Ars Docet and our clients are always looking for artworks by Masters from renaissance to contemporary periods. Ars Docet employs a secure system which can present an artwork in a totally controlled and confidential manner to prescreened parties. This system provides the control and confidentiality which transactions in fine artwork deserve. Any transaction can be supported by an appropriate escrow service. We work with Discerned Collectors, Trusts, Fiduciaries, Private banks, Public and Private Institutions, Corporations, Foundations, Museums, Artists' estates, Advisors and Consultants
