Ronan Clarke, founder and owner, says "While estates and consignments are our bread and butter, what sets our Fine Art auctions apart is that we go places and find paintings that are neglected or dismissed by others." He adds, "while we're strong in Greenwich and Park Avenue, we're unmatched in getting into locations like Harlem or Brooklyn or New Jersey - that's how we find great lost art."

Clarke's November 2007 Fine Art Auction broke records for 14 American and International artists. Please contact us at your earliest convenience to discuss your fine art.
