As the leading art dealers in the North of England specialising in original works by L.S. Lowry and Adolphe Valette, we fully appreciate that provenance is key to the confidence of any collector.
Expertise You Can Trust
Our policy is to offer only authentic works by these sought-after artists. We want you to acquire art you not only love, but can trust completely. Achieving that certainty takes expertise: thorough research of how an artwork has moved between collections, auctions, galleries and the artist's estate. Each artwork is different, but comprehensive knowledge and understanding of provenance, exhibition history and the landscape of an artist's literature is key, and we are dedicated to this process.
We have the benefit of direct access to the expertise of previous dealers in the field: Bill Clark, formerly of Clark Art (in respect of L.S Lowry) and Jan Green, formerly of Tib Lane Gallery (who worked with Valette’s widow, Andreé, and the estate).We also value our strong relationships with major public institutions, which provide stewardship and scholarship for works by both artists.
Whether the motivation is to sell, consign or purchase a work of art, we offer to present and future clients our integrity and discretion.
Selling your Lowry or Valette Artwork with Confidence
We are actively looking to source artworks by Lowry and Valette, as we always have an evolving list of interested clients. We are happy to discuss any work in confidence, offer honest advice on valuation and the market, and guide you through each step of the process.
