Getty Provenance Index Relaunches After Redevelopment
Getty announced the following:First launched in the 1980s, the Getty Provenance Index (GPI) has evolved into an unparalleled resource for tracing the ownership history of artworks, serving as a cornerstone for research on provenance, collecting, and art markets.
