Abstract

This paper proposes an empirical analysis to establish the determinants of artist price heterogeneity. Using a unique dataset, which comprises all artwork sales occurred in Italy in the period 2006–10, and a novel econometric approach, we show that price heterogeneity is explained by several artist- and market-specific characteristics.
