The worth of many paintings is predicated on nothing more than their compatibility with the moment's prevailing taste. But the times and tastes change.

We prefer to place our faith in work with merit that is recognizable to every succeeding generation and will prevail long after the appeal and distractions of transient fads and trends rise and fall. These are paintings of historical importance substantiated by scholarship, provenance, and museum inclusion.

Let’s place our resolve in the belief that there is, in all people, an inherent appreciation for what is classic that only needs to be awakened. Whether you are considering your first acquisition or are one of the many distinguished collectors or museums that have acquired from us, know that these are the paintings we have committed our capital and reputation to own and offer.
