We have worked on some valuable paintings, as well as lesser works, but now we concentrate on buying mainly 19th Century British Landscapes, Seascapes and Portraits at auction that can be enjoyed and bought by almost everyone at a very reasonable price. The paintings and frames are restored so you don't have any further expense. We occasionally buy modern paintings and these are clearly listed as such. We do not sell modern reproduction antique paintings. All our antique and vintage paintings are genuine and guaranteed to be from the period we state. We research our paintings wherever possible, using our extensive collection of catalogues, Benezit Dictionary of artists and of course, the internet. When describing paintings we use an established terminology in the cataloguing of art and antiques. For example: 'John Constable 1776-1837 ' In the auctioneer's opinion, a work by the artist. 'Attributed to John Constable 1776-1837' In the auctioneer's opinion, probably a work by the artist. 'Circle of John Constable 1776-1837' In the auctioneer's opinion, a work by an unidentified artist working in the artist's style and during the period of the artist's life. 'Follower of John Constable 1776-1837' In the auctioneer's opinion, a work by an unidentified artist working in the artist's style, contemporary or near contemporary. 'School of John Constable 1776-1837, 18th century' In the auctioneer's opinion, a work executed at that time and in the style associated with that artist. 'Dutch School, 18th century' In the auctioneer's opinion, a work executed at that time and in the style associated with that location. 'Manner of John Constable 1776-1837 ' In the auctioneer's opinion, a work by an unidentified artist working in the artist's style but at a later date, although not of recent execution. 'Style of John Constable 1776-1837' In the auctioneer's opinion, a work by an unidentified artist working in the artist's style and of recent execution. 'After John Constable 1776-1837' In the auctioneer's opinion, a copy by an unidentified artist of a named work by the artist. A work catalogued with accompanying dates e.g. 1577-1640 relates to the identification of the particular artist and is not proof of attribution or indicative of authenticity. The term signed and/or date and/or inscribed means that, in the auctioneer's opinion, the signature and/or date and/or inscription are those of the artist. The term bears signature and/or date and/ or inscription means that in the auctioneer's opinion that artist's name and/or date and/or inscription have been added by another hand.
