"I inherited a painting from my grandfather. MOMAA confirmed it was an early El Anatsui sketch—now insured for over €9,000."

Adeola B. Lagos

"What I thought was decorative turned out to be a 1970s Nigerian modernist piece. MOMAA's insight was honest and eye-opening."

Thomas W. Berlin

"I tried a free appraisal site first. They gave me two sentences. MOMAA gave me context, history, and confidence."
