October 2008

Established over twenty years ago, The Taylor Gallery no longer has a retail shop. We now exhibit at The British Antique Dealers Association Fair in March and at the two Olympia Antique and Fine Art Fairs in June and November. We will also show specific paintings "by appointment " at mutually convenient times.

Despite the current financial turmoil, we are, perhaps surprisingly, presently enjoying our busiest year ever. The June Olympia Fine Art Fair was a record for us and we have just finished a remarkably successful Exhibition " Edward Seago, the Artist's Artist " that we held in co operation with Colnaghi and Co ( Seago's Agents from 1946 to 1966 ) at their wonderful gallery in Old Bond Street. We still have a few Catalogues of this Exhibition left at £10 each. Cheques payable to The Taylor Gallery Ltd. All profits from Catalogue sales will be donated to The Norwich Castle Museum's Acquisition Fund. From the feedback that we have been getting from our customers,they no longer want all of their assets committed to the hyper volatile Stock Market. They now prefer to have at least a portion of their money invested in a nice painting.

We are now looking forward to exhibiting at The Olympia Fine Art Fair ( November 10th to 16th ) and then at The Boat Show at Earls Court ( November 26th to 30th ) where we have been invited to put on an Exhibition of our Marine paintings.

Please remember that, as well as selling paintings,we are always interested to buy them. We are prepared to purchase whole collections or just single pieces.

For example, following on the success of our recently finished " Edward Seago, the Artists' Artist " Exhibition, we are now keen to purchase more good examples of Seago's work. Unlike most major Auction Houses, we do not charge any Seller's Commission ( usually 10% ), Insurance Fees (usually 1-1.5 % ) or Illustration costs ( often several hundred pounds ) and we pay you immediately not six weeks after the day of the auction. So, if you are thinking of selling, please phone us on 020 7581 0253 "

We specialise in Twentieth Century British artists such as Edward Seago, Montague Dawson, Sir William Russell Flint and Norman Wilkinson. We also specialise in China Trade and Marine art and occasionally we have a few South East Asian paintings by such artists as Fernando Amorsolo.
