ArtLoan is assembling a world-class group of internationally recognized property specialists. Working from offices around the world, they offer a level of expertise in their related fields of antiques, collectibles and fine arts that is rarely found in the specialty finance industry. Each expert is carefully selected for his/her knowledge and recognition in a specific field and each must pass a rigorous set of criteria in order to be accepted as an ArtLoan specialist. Together with ArtLoan's in-house property experts, our international team of specialists assures clients the highest caliber of property evaluation, and the highest loan valuations possible.

Heading ArtLoan's team of specialists is Edgar Harden, co-author of the upcoming and much-anticipated catalogue of French furniture in the Victoria & Albert Museum (London). Formerly with The National Gallery of Art, The Louvre, The Getty Museum, and Phillip's and Christie's auction houses, Mr. Harden works closely with ArtLoan’s management team to ensure the accurate identification and appraisal of all incoming property. Mr. Harden lives in New York City, dividing his time between the East and West Coasts, as well as Great Britain and the Continent.
