Request for Authentication

The Filippo di Sambuy Archive was established in 2024 at the initiative of the Artist himself.

The collection, cataloging, and archiving of Filippo di Sambuy's works are aimed at documenting the Artist's body of work and creating a comprehensive catalog of his artworks, with the purpose of ensuring their authenticity and value.

The verification of authenticity and possible archiving of the artwork serves as a guarantee to protect both collectors who, over time, have come into possession of a work by Filippo di Sambuy, and the Artist's identity and creative legacy.

Those who own an artwork attributed to Filippo di Sambuy are therefore invited to contact the Archive to request authenticity verification and potential inclusion in the Archive. This invitation is also extended to those who may hold the artwork on behalf of third parties.

The authenticity verification of the artwork is carried out personally by Filippo di Sambuy. If the authenticity is confirmed by the Artist, the artwork will be included in the Archive and assigned a unique inventory number. The archiving process, carried out at the timing and in the manner deemed necessary by the Archive, aims to create a comprehensive digital catalog of the Artist’s works, within which ownership will be indicated according to the information provided by the party requesting archiving.

Works created by Filippo di Sambuy as gifts or personal tributes, specifically conceived and produced with this intent and bearing explicit references to the recipient, are considered strictly personal creations and, therefore, are not subject to archiving. Upon request, the Archive will nevertheless proceed with authenticity verification and will issue a statement confirming or denying the authenticity, indicating that the artwork was gifted by the Artist for personal reasons.

How to Proceed

To obtain an authentication, please contact the Filippo di Sambuy Archive at the email address archiviofds@gmail.com for information on procedures and costs.
