Default Does SGC know how to authenticate photo content?

Posted By: Mark Fimoff

Jason - this is absolutely not just a matter for the parties. And, this is not the only expensive wrongly identified auction photo that has come up recently.

I do understand that Brian just may not be able to reveal details - there may be even some serious legal issues involved with respect to whoever made the claims about this photo. And, I think my second post likely gives a good picture of what happened. But going forward, some combination of auctioneer/authenticator that knows how to evaluate photo content independently of the consignor is needed.
