:“Sleepers” are artworks or collectibles that are undervalued because one or more characteristics go unrecognized. This article discusses 12 sleepers that have been sold at auction on the antiquity market since 2007 whose attribution as antiquities were originally overlooked, either accidentally or deliberately. The objects are presented in the context of a theoretical framework describing both the legal and economic incentives to perform due diligence and to reveal, or “awaken,” a sleeper antiquity. The theory implies that sleepers may arise for several reasons, and the case studies are grouped accordingly. Most pressingly, the analysis identifies two ways in which sellers are disincentivized to be transparent about an object’s identity: when they can exploit legal loopholes to deliberately misattribute an antiquity and mediate export and when they can hide disagreement about an object’s authenticity to mediate its sale. Placing the case studies in the broader market context, we highlight particular areas that should be addressed by policy or regulatory reform. The analysis also has wider applications to other forms of art.

“沉睡者”古物:古代艺术品销售的误区
:“沉睡者”是由于一个或多个特征未被识别而被低估的艺术品或收藏品。本文讨论了自 2007 年以来在古物市场上拍卖的 12 件枕木,这些枕木的古物归属最初被无意或有意地忽视了。这些对象是在一个理论框架的背景下呈现的,该框架描述了进行尽职调查和揭示或“唤醒”沉睡的古代的法律和经济动机。该理论暗示,睡眠者的出现可能有几个原因,案例研究也相应地进行了分组。最紧迫的是,该分析确定了两种抑制卖家对物品身份透明的方式:当他们可以利用法律漏洞故意错误地认定一件古董并调解出口时,当他们可以隐藏对一件物品的真实性的分歧以调解其销售时。将案例研究置于更广泛的市场背景下,我们强调了政策或监管改革应解决的特定领域。该分析还对其他艺术形式有更广泛的应用。
