Getty research candidates
Downloadable research extracts derived from Getty’s historical art sales catalogs.
These rows are unverified research candidates, not confirmed completed sales, individual-object valuations or authenticated records. Source amounts can be high bids or hammer prices, a lot can include multiple objects, and dates and currencies may be uncertain or transcribed. The records are unrelated to the current card ledgers.
Each file is a separately processed source segment. The same candidate can appear across segments. The previously published Getty sample corresponds to part 13 and is excluded from these downloads. Counts describe rows within each download; they are not a combined count of unique items, transactions or sales. Original textual currency and prices are retained without conversion.
These files are modified extracts of the Getty Research Institute’s Getty Provenance Index® Sales Catalogs dataset, available under CC0 1.0. Read Getty’s dataset and attribution information. Getty has not endorsed this project.
Files are compressed CSV downloads. Unzip a file before opening it; when using a spreadsheet, import text without evaluating formulas.
