Certificate of Authenticity

Hey y'all, George Irwin with Western Gallery here. Um, I wanted to show you guys something. Whenever you buy a piece from Western Gallery, you get the amazing artwork that you chose, um, and you get to enjoy that in your home for who knows how long. But should you decide to sell it, or say that your kids inherit it and they want to sell it as part of an auction of your collection, you're going to need some provenance about the piece for it to be saleable or you know, to have any value to it whatsoever, really. And so each piece that we sell comes with a certificate of authenticity showing the provenance of the piece, which at the point that you have it has come from the studio of the artist and then is sold by Western Gallery. So here is the certificate. This is a sample— or it's not a sample, this is the actual certificate for Breadbasket. By Noel Ferris, which hasn't sold yet but will before the end of the show. And it's got an embossed seal here so that you know that it's not been forged. It has the provenance, got a picture, details of the work, and this one is not certified yet. I signed them all by hand, but this one will be signed when it sells. So I just wanted you to know about that. Not that it's a huge thing for enjoying a piece of art in your home, but it is a good piece of documentation to have. So anyway, thanks so much for your time. Peace.
