Myriam Nader Haitian Art Gallery offers professional fine art appraisal services specializing in Haitian art. With decades of expertise in the field, we provide clients with accurate market-based valuations supported by research, connoisseurship, and current market comparables. Our appraisal services are designed for private collectors, estates, attorneys, fiduciaries, museums, and institutions seeking credible expertise and professional documentation. 

Purpose of an Art Appraisal

An art appraisal provides a professional opinion of value based on market analysis, artist relevance, provenance, and comparable sales. Appraisals may be requested for a variety of reasons, including:

• Estate planning and probate
• Insurance scheduling and coverage
• Charitable donation documentation
• Private acquisition or resale planning
• Collection management and asset organization
• Advisory services for collectors and institutions

Each appraisal request is approached with discretion, professionalism, and attention to detail.

Our Appraisal Approach

We evaluate artworks using a combination of:

• Artist attribution and stylistic analysis
• Condition review based on submitted images and documentation
• Provenance and authenticity indicators
• Historical and market relevance
• Comparable sales research and gallery valuation standards
• Current collector demand and market trends

Where required, appraisals may include written documentation supported by comparables and professional formatting.

Formal Written Appraisal Reports

Formal written appraisal reports are available upon request and may be prepared for professional and institutional use. These reports are suitable for clients requiring structured documentation for insurance, estate planning, or donation purposes. All written reports are prepared to a high standard of clarity, with supporting research and a professional presentation.

Confidentiality & Discretion

All appraisal inquiries are handled with strict confidentiality. We understand that collectors, families, and fiduciaries require discretion when evaluating personal collections and estate assets.

To begin the appraisal process, please submit your artwork details through our secure appraisal request form. Once reviewed, you will be contacted directly regarding recommended service options, pricing, and next steps.

Note: Submitting an inquiry does not constitute a formal appraisal until the scope of work and fees are confirmed.
