Intermediary Service
At TenCate Art we offer specialised intermediary services for collectors, sellers and buyers of European art from the Gothic to the 18th century.
We assess artworks with professional care, research their background and place each piece with the auction house or platform where it achieves the strongest visibility and value.
The difference between €200 and €2,000 is often the result of correct attribution, expert description and presenting the work to the right audience.
With TenCate Art, your art is guided with knowledge, strategy and respect for its cultural and historical importance.
