A method for authenticating a subject painting comprising the steps of first scanning a subject painting using a scanner and thereby generating electronic image data of the scanned painting image. The electronic image data is then inputting into a computer for processing. An approxpriate software program or custom software and a mathematical model is then used to create an electronic signature of particular brush- strokes of the subject painting. The computer then electronically compares the electronic brushstroke signature of the subject painting with selected reference brushstroke signatures of paintings of confirmed authenticity so that the authenticity of the subject painting may be determined. |
