Hahnemühle Certificate of Authenticity

The certificate is produced using the Hahnemühle Certificate of Authenticity system. Each Standard Certificate is printed on premium mould-made paper featuring the classic Hahnemühle watermark, deckle edges, and embedded security fibres.

Every certificate is individually numbered and paired to its artwork through a serialized authentication system. A numbered Hahnemühle Certified Quality hologram is applied to the certificate, while an identically numbered second hologram is affixed to the reverse of the artwork, permanently linking the two.

The certificate is designed to accompany the work for generations, supporting provenance, collection management, future resale documentation, and institutional record keeping.
