Taking a loan on Bernard Buffet Painting & Art

Are you asking yourself, “Should I pawn my Bernard Buffet art or painting?” A perennial favourite with collectors, the works of the French expressionist painter are valuable assets to those lucky enough to own them.

And so for those of you looking to secure loans on Bernard Buffet art or paintings, here are some things to bear in mind:

Sell or pawn your Buffet art?

Owners of high-value Bernard Buffet artworks and paintings are often stuck in a quandary between wanting to get value out of the pieces in their collection, and not wishing to relinquish a piece that is likely to appreciate in value over time.

Selling that treasured Bernard Buffet painting can seem a more drastic step than you are prepared to take.

Thankfully, this is where a pawnbroker can help. By securing a loan on your Bernard Buffet piece of art or painting, you can get financial assets when you need them, to help you to buy that new home or start that business you have been dreaming of.

A French master

Born in 1928 in Paris, and educated at the National School of Fine Arts on the Left Bank of the Seine, Bernard Buffet worked in Eugène Narbonne’s studio and developed a bold, graphic style of expressionism and deft use of colour. He also took a stand against abstract art by establishing the Witness Man collective of artists.

Buffet produced more than 8,000 works before taking his own life in 1999. Despite never achieving critical acclaim during his lifetime, Bernard Buffet enjoyed enormous commercial success, which explains the increasingly high value of his art and paintings at pawn shops .

Buffet’s works remain consistently popular with collectors and pawnbrokers alike, raising huge sums at auction. The highest price tag to date was for his 1991 work Les Clown Musiciens, Le Saxophoniste, which fetched £1 million at Christie’s in London in 2016. Second place goes to La Tour Eiffel (1955), which raised £774,000 at Matsart in Israel also in 2016; followed by Scene De Rue (1956), which Sotheby’s in New York sold for £620,000 in 1990.
