Antique Art Shop<\/h1>\n

What we mean by antique art\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Beginning<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

In the antiquarian world, when we talk about antique paintings and sculptures<\/strong>, we are referring to a period that does not correspond to the \u00e9poques of art history.<\/span><\/p>\n

It starts with works of the late Middle Ages and the paintings we call gold-ground or golden age.<\/span><\/p>\n

The statues in this period were done in marble, polychrome wood, bronze, and terracotta<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The End\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n

In our industry, antique art generally ends with the 19th\/20th century.<\/span><\/p>\n

The turn of the 20th century marks the end of academicism and the advent of avant-garde movements.<\/span><\/p>\n

Impressionism<\/em> <\/a>was the last great classical art movement, and when it made way for Cubism<\/a>, the era of modern and contemporary art began.<\/span><\/p>\n

When we started out: Selling Antique Art, then and now<\/b><\/h2>\n

Selling antiques has always been our passion and our profession.<\/span><\/p>\n

We used to be generalist antique dealers, i.e. we bought antiques.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our shop walls were full of antique paintings with portraits of famous people or battle scenes adorned with carved antique frames.<\/span><\/p>\n

Antique Murano-glass teardrop chandeliers hung from the ceilings.<\/span><\/p>\n

An expert tip for our customers: an antique chandelier goes perfectly in a modern or contemporary interior. Try it and see!<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Years ago, we displayed pairs of sumptuous armchairs in gold-leaf gilded wood and tables embellished with gilded bronze.<\/span><\/p>\n

It was the perfect inventory for an antique shop, the pride of any dealer.<\/span><\/p>\n

About our antique art shop\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

Over the years, Alessandro and I have refined our mission.<\/span><\/p>\n

We have breathed new life into the antique shop. Selection is our guiding concept.<\/span><\/p>\n

We have one steadfast rule: we only buy things that we like and to which we can answer “yes” to the question, “Would my favorite customer buy it?\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Expert tip<\/strong>: An antique painting is an irreplaceable decor piece. It can really make a difference in your space.<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"Egidi

It’s even better if you give the painting an antique frame, an invaluable decorative element. Not only does it embellish a work of art, but it can also be used with modern paintings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our motto<\/strong>: a perfect interior design flawlessly joins the antique and the modern.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

There is nothing chicer than a drawing by Carlo Carr\u00e0<\/a> or a painting by Antonio Donghi<\/strong> decked out in an antique Salvator Rosa frame (see photo below)<\/span><\/p>\n

Antique art: a sure investment!<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Considering the unrivaled nature of modern and contemporary art, what role do antiques play today?<\/span><\/p>\n

We appraise and buy antique paintings, sculptures, and art objects<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

This is why we keep on making appraisals, buying, and selling<\/strong> antique paintings, sculptures, and objects<\/a>, provided they are original and of the highest quality.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our motto<\/strong>: a perfect interior design flawlessly joins the antique and the modern.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What could be more graceful than an antique painting<\/a> above a console designed by Gio Ponti<\/strong>?<\/span><\/p>\n

Egidi MadeinItaly<\/strong> was born in Rome, so antique art is in our blood<\/strong>!<\/span><\/p>\n

We recommend the article in our magazine about the Alana Collection<\/em><\/a> of Alvaro Saieh<\/strong> and his wife Ana Guzm\u00e1n<\/strong> who have collected genuine treasures of antique Italian art over the years.<\/span><\/p>\n
