Ask once; every authorised appraiser can reply with a fee and a time. You choose one and pay on their Oxishops shop. You always see the result; only the owner decides whether it is public.
Living artists certify their own work. For artists no longer living, estates, descendants and authorised traders and dealers provide provenance: shown here on OxiArt, bought on Oxishops.
