About
One house,
two surfaces.
We deal in paintings, and we paint walls. It is the same craft working at two scales — a canvas you can carry and a wall you cannot. A work of ours might measure 73 by 91 centimetres or four metres by two and a half; the difference is the surface, not the standard.
On canvas
Sourced, examined, placed.
We source and place works by masters and contemporaries — a carved church interior in near darkness, a Soviet kitchen at breakfast, a village priest with the mountains behind him. Works are shown by appointment and sold privately, with a condition report and full measurements accompanying every enquiry.
We also buy. Single works, collections and whole estates — the first assessment costs nothing, and we say plainly when a work is not for us.
On plaster
Drawn to the room, worked in place.
A mural is commissioned rather than bought. We measure the wall, draw the scheme to your room, agree it, and then paint it where it stands. Where a painted wall is not what the room wants, we supply printed panels instead — made to the exact size of the wall, delivered and fitted.
Both start the same way: tell us the room, and send a photograph of the wall.
Provenance
Every work leaves
with its papers.
Attribution is the difference between a painting and an asset. Nothing goes out of here on a handshake.
Written expertise
Independent examination, then a signed and stamped certificate naming the work, the artist, and the grounds on which the attribution rests.
Provenance file
Ownership chain, prior sales, and exhibition history, assembled in writing before a price is ever quoted.
Catalogue reference
Where a work is published in a monograph or an exhibition catalogue, we supply the volume, the plate, and the page.
