“Manly fine art consultants and husband-and-wife team David Hulme and Brigitte Banziger are familiar with the scenario: someone comes in with an artwork and are embarrassed about asking how much it’s worth. ‘The large auction houses can be
intimidating and make people feel uncomfortable about an artwork that isn’t worth a lot of money,’ Brigitte said. ‘But we’re always interested in seeing artworks – paintings, drawings, old photographs and limited-edition prints. It’s not all about money – a painting may not be worth a lot of moneybut may be worth a lot in terms of sentimental or historical value and that’s something to be proud of.”
