When we view art pieces seen at a gallery or muse, there is usually no value stated on the piece. In this case the owner has valued the work and the gallery either keeps the piece at will, called "collection", owner of art loan their works of art to exhibits with the expectation "Mr. and Mrs. McCloskey has lent this ' ' to be included on a temperary basis for a specific purpose as these are examples of owners responce to the value of their art piece. Another way of saying this is value is identified most broadly by the owner.

Works of art, like houses, are worth whatever anyone is prepared to pay for them. In auctions works are often given estimates by 'experts' who have a lot of experience in such fields, and will know about the artist etc. and what other works by the same artist sold for and can therefore make a reasonable estimate as to what a sale price should be, although art works can go for much more or less than the estimate.

Time usually decides which pieces of art are valuable and which are not. A good piece of art passes the test of time and people enjoy watching it or hearing it or reading it century after century.

appraisers value art pieces... they take into account things like
Age, condition, subject, medium, demand, artist, and quality and style of the art. however what one person may say isn't worth the paper or canvas its painted on another mights say its priceless. Art appraisal is very subjective in some situations. but for the most part if you have it appraised by a trained and certified appraiser then you can usualy be confident that it is worth what you have been told its worth.

The art buyer and the gallery owner. Such a hard but easy job.

The collectors decide how much they are willing to pay. It's a real buyer's market.

the same way anything that is bought and sold: the market forces of supply & demand
