Cassia House receives proposals from owners, heirs, and collectors interested in selling artworks through our secondary-market division.

We primarily work with modern and contemporary Argentine art, twentieth-century masters, paintings, drawings, and graphic works by national and international artists. Cassia House does not conduct auctions; each proposal is reviewed for possible private-market representation.

How to submit an artwork

For an initial evaluation, please send:

  • Complete photographs of the front and back
  • Photographs of the signature
  • Images of labels, stamps, and inscriptions
  • Artist’s name
  • Title, when known
  • Medium and support
  • Dimensions with and without the frame
  • Estimated year or period
  • Provenance
  • Certificates, invoices, or catalogs
  • The price expected by the owner

Provenance documentation may include purchase invoices, certificates, gallery labels, auction catalogs, publications, historical photographs, or family records. Read more about art appraisal and the secondary market.

Evaluation process

Each proposal is reviewed individually. The evaluation may consider authorship, authenticity, condition, artistic quality, period, medium, dimensions, provenance, documentation, and current demand for the artist.

Submitting information does not automatically mean that an artwork will be accepted. We select pieces that are compatible with the profile and standards of Private Collections.

Commercial representation

When an artwork is accepted, we agree with the owner on:

  • Minimum price
  • Published price
  • Commission
  • Required documentation
  • Exhibition conditions
  • Sales period and process
  • Delivery to the buyer

We then prepare the artwork page, photography, digital publication, and commercial presentation. Current acquisition examples can be explored on Buy Argentine Art.

To submit an artwork, contact Cassia House with photographs and the available records.
