EXPERTISE AND EXPERIENCE

Click on the thumbnails below to see how we have helped clients buy and sell art successfully.

Martin Johnson Heade We advise a number of American collectors on both European and American art. One of our client’s passions is the rare Hummingbird series by Heade - we have found him eight. We source and negotiate and arrange hanging for an all-inclusive price of 5%.		Pierre-Auguste Renoir We sell paintings discreetly for clients, yet maximise their investment. We sold this beautiful Renoir to a private UK collector within two months of being commissioned by the Californian owner.

Henri Matisse Purchased in London with Fine Art Brokers advice in 2000 for $7.5 million; our client didn’t see it until it arrived in his New York residence, trusting our opinion and valuation, and sold with Fine Art Brokers advice for $21.7 million in 2007, after we had urged him to take advantage of market conditions.		Andrew Wyeth Fine Art Brokers help clients decide which paintings to ignore, which paintings to buy at the right price, and which paintings to break the budget for. This exceptional work falls into the latter category, and our client broke the auction record to acquire it.

William Scott We saw this great example in a private collection, and knew one of our clients would acquire it at the right price. Much negotiation was needed, but eventually we brokered a deal which made both buyer and seller happy.		Bridget Riley We told a client about this painting at auction and advised him on market value and a bidding strategy which was successful. As always, we then arranged delivery and hanging, all within our standard fee.

Le Sidaner We acquired this Le Sidaner at auction for a client and organised cleaning and shipping on their behalf.		Terry Frost A client viewed this Frost at another gallery and after a period of negotiation we secured the work for him for a good price
