Thanks to all you folks who sent me your favorite reference questions for
my lecture. I'm having lots of fun creating a core collection
that will handle most of these. I will summarize the questions list after
my lecture is over.
In the course of going through these questions, I realized that I have no
resources to handle those oft-asked public library and museum questions
about provenance of paintings or finding out what a work of art is
worth. I've always been in academic art libraries, and these questions just
don't seem to come up here.
Can anyone give me their 'quick and dirty' list of favorite sources for
these kinds of questions?
thanks!
