Provenance & Verification

An identity that stays with the artwork

Use the catalog ID on the artwork label or certificate to find the corresponding gallery entry. Titles and images help identify a work, while the catalog ID distinguishes it from other impressions of the same fish and from its reproductions.

A public provenance record may include source-fish photographs, an impression in progress, a signed or sealed finished state, and a documented presentation. The available evidence differs by work. A photograph establishes the state shown at that time; it does not by itself establish an exact creation or completion time.

Public record, collector privacy

Public records are limited to reviewed artwork information and sanitized documentary copies. Collector identities, customer contact details, transaction records, exact GPS, private source files, and internal catalog data are retained privately.

Sold works keep their gallery identity and public provenance record. A historical listing does not offer the original for sale or disclose who owns it.

Selected artwork records

Sold original. Retained as a historical gallery and provenance entry.

GYT-002 — Redhorse off Marine City I
The source-fish sequence is dated June 27, 2026. Artist-confirmed impression photographs show Redhorse I on June 28. Matching August 3 photographs show the work signed, sealed, and framed.

GYT-013 — Redhorse off Marine City II
A distinct second impression from the fish shared with GYT-002. An artist-confirmed impression photograph anchors the identification. Later exhibition photographs are attributed through visual comparison with that reference.

Questions about an artwork or certificate

Start with the catalog ID, title, and the detail you would like checked. Artwork and certificate questions require review against the corresponding record. This gallery does not provide an automated certificate validation or ownership-transfer service.
