Modern Masters
As well as contemporary artists we also handle work by famous artists from the 20th Century. Some of our recent exhibitions have exhibited original prints by Chagall, Kandinsky, Pasmore, Piranesi and Caulfield.
High quaility original prints are sought after for their rarity and craftsmanship and are therefore extremely collectable. As well as being a pleasure to own and enjoy they are also a good investment.
If you are looking for a specific work by a particular artist please give us a call and we will be pleased to see if we can find it for you.
Below are a sample of artists we have exhibited in the last 12 months.
