Art Inspection Tip
Patricia Altschul recommends using a portable blacklight to inspect art for damage, plus seeking deals at local estate auctions [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HB6cL66lXsE].
Altschul's blacklight tip can reveal repairs or overpainting that are invisible under normal light. This helps buyers assess the true condition and value of art before purchasing. Estate auctions can be treasure troves for art collectors. These sales often feature items from private collections, potentially offered at prices below market value. However, buyers should still do their homework before bidding. Checking provenance and condition remains crucial, even if the initial price seems attractive.
