About Us

Culture, history and artistry combined, leaving for us a rich legacy to enjoy and appreciate on many aesthetic levels. Every work of art a true antique! Original prints from the reign of the last Stuart Kings, the Georgian and Victorian periods. British watercolours and oils from the 1700s to modern times. All original works of art, no reproductions, re-strikes or newly colored copies -- just originals, conserved as the artist created them.
-John P. Graves, Jr., Proprietor
