Buying / selling

Valuation

Questions about attributions, valuations and valuations
of paintings, drawings and prints, unfortunately we can no langer answer without charging a fee.
If you need a valuation or appraisal we invite you to visit the Gallery by appointment.

Restoration advice

A recommendation about the conservation or restoration of a painting can be made after an examination of the work in the gallery. This service is free of charge.

Art-historical research

Gallery Rob Kattenburg has its own documentation centre. As well as an extremely extensive library there are photograph archives built up over thirty-five years that can be used in art-historical research. This means that an investigation into the history of any marine painting is nearly always successful.

Gallery Rob Kattenburg regularly publishes beautifully illustrated brochures and catalogues, which are of course about shipping. These publications are a valuable supplement to the existing literature. While stocks last these publications can be requested by credit transfer of € 5 for a brochure and € 10 for a hardback publication (including postage).
