The private collection is the least documented significant asset most families own. Aurelian is the archive that makes it defensible — for insurance, for succession, and for the museum request that lands in six months. Built for the collector who wants the collection to survive intact into the next generation.
Where it hurts today
The paintings in the flat, the sculptures at the country house, the works on loan — no single list, no single valuation, no single insurance schedule.
The provenance for the Léger sits in a filing cabinet. The auction reference for the Basquiat is in an email from 2014. Neither survives a house move.
The last full valuation was six years ago; the collection has appreciated 40%. The insurance rider has not been touched.
What Aurelian gives you
Every work — painting, sculpture, drawing, edition — with dimensions, medium, current location, condition report, valuation history and full provenance chain.
Baseline valuations with source and date. Filter and export an appraised schedule for insurers or estate counsel in one click.
Museum loans, gallery shows, publications, home addresses — captured against each work with dates and reference numbers.
You see everything. Advisors see what they are advising on. Insurers see only the appraised schedule. Fine-grained permission on every record.
How it flows
Photograph each work, verify dimensions, scan provenance documents. A single source of truth across every residence.
Baseline valuation with source and date. Insurance schedule generated on demand.
Loans, moves, restorations, publications — logged against the work as they happen, not reconstructed years later.
When the collection passes to the next generation, the archive passes with it — intact and defensible.
