The 2006-2007 edition of "Davenport's Art Reference & Price Guide" was published in November 2005. It provides biographical and pricing information for over 275,000 artists, over 25,000 more artists than the previous Gold Edition.
For those not familiar with the Davenport's, the publication has the great advantage over other art reference books and online databases is that you can find out almost instantly whether an artist is known and whether or not his or her work has sold at auction. Davenport's is like the compass that points the way when all you have to go on is an artist's name, signature or monogram and nothing else. A must for estate agents, Davenport's quickly identifies the merit of the artist, helping prevent costly mistakes. Without Davenport's, you would have to repeatedly look up the artist in multiple art reference books and price resources hoping to find information; with Davenport's, you find the name fast and find out exactly where to go next. The best part about the index is that it provides data on numerous obscure and minor artists, many of whom are listed nowhere else.
