Signing a Certificate of Authenticity for works of art.

Certificate of Authenticity for works of art

What is a certificate of authenticity?

A certificate of authenticity - often called Certificate of Authenticity (COA) - is a document that confirms that a work of art is genuine. It describes, among other things, the artist, title, year, technique, edition and signature, and clearly links the work to its creator.

For artists and photographers, a good certificate of authenticity is part of their professional expression. For collectors and buyers, it provides peace of mind and important documentation over time.

Why is a Certificate of Authenticity important?

  • Confirms that the work is original, not a random copy
  • Makes it easier to resell, insure and document your collection
  • Increases seriousness and trust when dealing with galleries and buyers
  • Provides a one-page overview of print run, technology and production

Who are our certificates of authenticity suitable for?

  • Visual artists, graphic designers and photographers

  • Galleries and studios

  • Art buyers and collectors who want to document works

  • Anyone who sells limited edition artworks

You can choose between ready-made templates and more customised certificates - with both Norwegian or English text.
