Where did you get the painting and from whom?
When did you acquire painting? Or the approximate age of the painting.

Is the painting on canvas or another medium?

Thanks

I have been offered a Willaim Verdult Painting called "Wonderous" as part of a settlement. I was wondering if could give me any further information about this painting and its value. I have been qiven a certificate of authenticity, and appraised value of $125,000.00 is this correct, and where would be the best place to verify.

Warren,

You have a better understanding of the market than most people. Our goal is to make sure Williams’ work is accepted by Christy’s and Sotheby. In order to do this, the auction house must have verifiable sales of Williams work. It may be good or self serving for perhaps Troy to move a painting and talk about the worth. But to you and most investors in Williams work, we need to ensure we have verifiable sales. That is our goal and we are moving along with the project.

You do not need to do anything online. I will put you on our mailing list to receive the newsletters and updates as we move forward.

Our first step is to work with http://www.artnet.com/ to get more verifiable sales of his work in their system.

Early on, we learned that bankers, lenders as well as other major auction houses check here to see if there have been repeated sales of an artist work in their data base before they will consider the piece.

We signed an agreement with artnet.com last week, and we’ll start entering prices shortly. We will keep you posted.

Thanks for the information. I’ll probably just keep “The Ballerina” and pass her along to my children one of these days. I’ve enjoyed her in my home for many years, but it is good to have a better idea of her value. I do like Verdult’s early work better than his more “commercial” paintings of recent years. While the Tut and Royal collections are beautiful…they are a bit gaudy for my taste.

After receiving the COA from Verdult, I tested the market with Christy’s just to see if they would accept the painting for auction. They declined. Now I know why. Maybe that will change one of these days.

I do appreciate your assistance. I’d like to be on your email list of auction information etc. Is there anything I need to do online?

Warren

Mike

Warren,

Thank you for your email.

Please review your COA as long as it does not look like the one here – then it will be a valid Certificate of Authenticity and Insurance Appraisal.

If it does, please let me know and we will take action to replace it.

Your Ballerina is certainly a rare work. You may be aware that a set of limited edition prints were made of this work.

We will keep the information provided in our data base.

In addition, you in the coming weeks you will start to see William Verdult’s work along with prices on major online art sites. We’ve completed actions with the following sites:
Artnet.com
Artprice.com
AskArt.com
And will start including additional auction prices starting with Artnet.com

I own the original oil by William Verdult titled “The Ballerina” which I acquired from the artist during a show in Atlanta, GA circa 1977-78.

I had the work certified for authenticity and appraised through Troy Verdult’s former web site, although the appraisal purports and appears to be signed by the artist himself. The certified authentic registration No is 202. The painting was appraised at $ 375,000 in 2004. A photograph of the work is attached.

For the first time in more than a year, I visited what was formerly www.verdultartexchange.com and discovered the events that have transpired with Mr. Verdult’s son and Mr. Smith.

I am writing to determine whether the appraisal I hold is valid. The crest is not identical with the one on your website. If the appraisal is not valid or is not accurate today, I would appreciate your consideration in replacing the appraisal.

Thank you.

Warren
